Phenomenal

What a great episode! Dr. McTier's wisdom and amazing fusion of scientific knowledge with the ability to tell it in a way that is educational, enlightened and accessible to so many people is truly a breath of fresh air. I love science and astronomy, but sometimes those who teach about it can forget that these subjects can be fascinating for everyone, not just to the elite academics that have advanced degrees. Not only that, her perspective on the way the cosmos can be a metaphor for so many aspects of life is awesome. Additionally, I really like that she has taken the time to acknowledge indigenous cultures and wisdom as opposed to the traditional male-centric, western based, "modern" views that are often exclusionary, judgemental and elitist. This mixed with JVN's fantastic ability to weave truth, facts and realness together, provide just the right amount of humor and entertainment to make this perfect. Love it!

Educational and entertaining!

This episode gave so much more than I expected in the best way possible. Historical context linked the topic to present day while never leaving a dull moment.
