In space, everyone can hear you PODCAST. Join the Third Men Podcast as we blast off once again in this all-interview special that takes you into the orbit of some of those closest to Third Man's record-setting Icarus Launch! First we chat with Nearsys founder and Near Space Ballooning pioneer Paul Verhage about the logistics of facilitating Jack White's Icarus launch, and some of the challenges in retrieving that precious vinyl payload! Next we sit down with scientist David Jankowski, one of the key figures responsible for the Icarus design and launch and founder & CEO of the SATINS Program - Students And Teachers In Near Space! Finally we welcome back to the show our third person in spirit every week, Kali Durga, as she fills us in on what it was like attending the Icarus launch party at Third Man Records! So sit back, fix yourself some tang, and prepare for these incredible first hand accounts of Jack White's inaugural venture into the stars! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
