#52 - Strings and Things: Mastering the Fretboard & Space Plumbing

from Lunch Break · host Timecast

If we only get one shot, we’re choosing to master "Through the Fire and Flames" on the guitar—even if we still can't play "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star". This week, we dive deep into the music theory of the fretboard, comparing it to a series of keyboards, and discuss why the guitar feels surprisingly easy to pick up. We also get into the gritty details of the Artemis mission, including the "space plumbing" required to fix a broken toilet and the ambitious (and controversial) plan to refuel rockets in orbit 15 times just to get to the moon. From the perfect pizza pyramid to why eating an orange in public is a selfish act, join us for another hour of us talking about... whatever.
