This week, Alex welcomes back John to discuss Space Politics, among a lot of other things. We hope this breaks up the cacophony that is election week coverage. Please enjoy two Americans who would rather talk about how crazy everyone is, the plans to make a Cis-Lunar International Space Station and how to figure whICH asteroids could hit Earth - you know, the important stuff.

THANK YOU FOR 100 EPISODES! We made it to 100 episodes! UNBELIEVABLE! To celebrate, I have John Neary and Neil Crawford on the show for another "Drinking, with Engineers" We discuss DNA, Genetics and Space. We cover a lot of things, including what DNA is, what is the importance of Kate Rubins sequencing DNA in Space for the first time, what alien DNA might be like and much, much more. As always, enjoy the show - and thank you for listening! I can't believe we made it to 100 episodes! Here's to the next 100! This Podcast is brought to you by AG3D Printing: Got a school project?
