O TYM ODCINKU
Warning - this is not a fair or balanced episode. Maybe if Karp or Gary had been available, we could have got someone to get the hose and spray us down with cold water - but they aren't here, so nothing is going to stop Will and Feather from gushing about a very special game for an hour.
And since Feather is writing this intro, it means I get to say: Kerbal Space Program deserves it. This silly little game about frog dudes and their incredibly wobbly rocket ships (Will! you forgot autostrut again!!) is important! I can't think of another game that is that good at capturing what it means to be an Engineer.
In this episode: jobs, why rockets go sideways, reaction wheels, Feather is the reason why we don't have cool things anymore, exploring the kerbol system, the upcoming Romeo mission to Juno, successors, Boeing Starliner.
