32. The Wright Brothers, Moon Landing

from Manifest Destiny Hosted by Rebecca C

From the first flight in Kittyhawk to fulfilling JFK's desire to claim the moon for America, this episode covers a lot of airspace. But if you're looking for scientific details on the physics of flight, you've come to the wrong podcast. Instead, your intrepid hosts delve into the manifest destiny motivation behind taking to the skies, man's ability to sleep literally anywhere, and Rebecca's low-key lunar conspiracy. Plus, Bachelorette parties, Emily St. John Mandel, and Blair's enduring ability to laugh at the darkest things imaginable (RIP Albert I, Albert II, and Albert III).
