Customer Reviews
It’s not just because they reference kerbal space program
They’re smart, funny, and sometimes silly. Oh, and they cover topics that I think are cool.
Love these guys.
I love these guys.
And as hard as they work on interviews, I skip them. Audio is so poor because interviewees are on speakerphone. Too bad. Good info, but can’t listen.
Five stars nonetheless.
