We'd Like to See Them Put a Dan on the Moon

Three grown men treat altar serving like a Division I pipeline, complete with depth charts, incense specialists, and funeral NIL deals—before pivoting seamlessly into breaking down the Artemis launch like it’s the Super Bowl of rockets. Dr. TAT celebrates the birth of a new mandatory listener (huge for the podcast’s long-term rebuild), while Stat Boy simultaneously proposes forced podcast consumption as a parenting strategy. Panda Dan declines a moon trip (coward behavior) with the confidence of a coach punting on 4th-and-1, Pluto gets cut from the roster, planets are ranked based on “rizz,” and the crew debates whether we’re about to run a full colonoscopy on the moon’s backside. It’s Easter, the sun is shining, both the Phillies & #SetHike!'s Andrew Painters are looming, and somehow this episode still spends 20 minutes scouting space like it’s the NFL Draft. WARNING: This podcast may contain - incense abuse allegations, a $100, 20-year investment strategy, and one man’s dream to put a Dan on the moon. Key Topics Discussed00:20 – Altar Server Combine & Church Power Rankings 08:39 – Mandatory Listeners & Podcast Growth Strategy 12:15 – Artemis Launch: Accidental Viewing Experience 16:18 – Rocket Confusion, Space Stats & Canadian Representation 19:21 – 'til touchdown brings me 'round again to find (Ooh) I'm not the man they think I am at home.
