Loving this.

Listened to this episode while cycling home in the dark through the woods. Stupid. Spoiler alert. This episode ends with a real cliff hanger.

Painfully Immature

The characters are as shallow as the performers. Couldn’t make it beyond the rapping scientist part. In no way realistic. Explorers on this type of journey wouldn’t act like junior highsters. This was awful.

"Inclusive Character"

So naturally there needed to be some jab at white people for no reason that contributes to the story whatsoever.

Ehh

Actors where good... the female character was annoying and not someone they'd ever put in space. She's a time bomb.

Great concept terrible dialogue

The current fad of hating white people will fizzle out in the next decade. To have it present in the future is absurd. Racist characters are fine, but if it doesn’t serve the narrative and is just a shot at a race of people is lazy. The central concept is great, the dialogue needed a ghost writer. If the idea was to empower a lesbian Latina woman then why not just have her act like an adult rather than a child? Competent adults with real jobs don’t hate entire races of people, only useless people do that. It fits a barista, it doesn’t fit how astronauts act.

Cringey comedy/sci fi

I can’t get over how cringey the main female character is. She is supposed to be on this very important mission but she won’t stop cracking jokes or pranking her fellow crewmate. She doesn’t take anything at all seriously and was so irritating to me. I get that that is how the character is written, but to me it was very annoying. I suppose it was to make the overall experience entertaining but for me it took me out of the story
