After a year on the asteroid, the crew is hoping to have the pod repaired, get back into space, and beam some podcasts back to Earth. This mini-episode is the first (and perhaps only) one where all five members of the cast are together at once... but warning: there's no actual trivia.

Our four-part return continues! As the expanded crew explores Asteroid Q, a longtime listener reveals that she's been lurking in a dangerous section of the asteroid's unique topography. Plus, trivia questions about Disney movies, biology, Hamilton, and Doctor Who.

Ross and Rachael discover that an old friend has also been stranded on the asteroid, which has some sinister secrets. They also ask trivia questions about Arrested Development, well-respected people, one hit wonders, and Kanye West.

Ross and Rachael explain where the escape pod has been for the last year or so, encounter a new friend sent by Spock, and ask trivia questions about the royal family, Green Day, the UN, and great books. This week’s theme song is “In Suspense” by Podsummit.

The last time we saw Dan Spencer, they were a half-man, half-cat floating through space. But this time, they're fully human, and we give them trivia questions about Parks & Recreation, parts of a whole, Weird Al Yankovic, and a “90’s Movie Subtract a Letter” round. Co-hosted by Engineer Rachael!
