Episode 359: Space Programs
from Regular Joes Podcast
Astronauts have been the subject of TV shows going back to the space program's origin. Many series have tried but few have captured and sustained audience interest. On the heels of Apple's alternate history Apollo saga For All Mankind Disney+ takes a second pass at adapting Tom Wolfe's The Right Stuff. Will this narrative of the formative years and indomitable men of NASA's Mercury Program resonate with watchers today ... or is this just Mad Men in Space? The Joes check out the first three episodes, weigh in, and take a look back at the lengthy list of prior attempts to bring astronauts into American living rooms ... or where ever it is we now stream. There's also Random Topics, a round of What's in the Box and a very Barry tribute to a recently passed legend you will want to check out In the October gallery at regularjoes.com. Thanks for listening!
