In Episode 30 of The Audio Files, Brad Zerbo and Jaytriot dedicate the entire show to a space-themed musical journey inspired by optimism, exploration, and innovation. The episode opens with discussion around the launch of Lt. Gen. Steven Kwast’s Space Revolution and the symbolism behind its use of David Bowie’s “Starman” as a theme of inspiration rather than invasion. From there, the hosts weave together music, cultural commentary, and speculative conversation about space, UFOs, and humanity’s drive to explore the unknown. The playlist spans decades and genres, highlighting how space has influenced rock, punk, metal, classical composition, and pop culture, from Bowie and Black Sabbath to John Williams’ Star Wars score and beyond. Along the way, Brad and Jaytriot reflect on technological stagnation versus innovation, cosmic curiosity, and how music often captures humanity’s hopes about the future before science catches up. The result is a fun, free-flowing episode that blends music history, curiosity, and imagination into a true late-night Audio Files jam.
