Send us a textEver wondered if you could survive being stranded alone on the red planet? Our latest deep dive examines The Martian, where astronaut Mark Watney must use ingenuity and science to stay alive on Mars after being accidentally left behind by his crew.We tackle the film's survival realism - from the questionable Martian dust storm that launches the plot to the scientifically sound (though explosive) water-making chemistry that keeps Watney alive. Did you know Mars' atmosphere is only 1% as dense as Earth's, making those dramatic windstorms physically impossible? Or that Watney's potato-growing strategy using human waste actually makes scientific sense?The episode sparks fascinating discussions about survival psychology and problem-solving. As Watney says, "You're in outer space, you are going to die, you have to solve every problem, one at a time, and when you solve enough problems you get to come back home." This methodical approach translates to any survival situation - focus on immediate challenges rather than becoming overwhelmed by your circumstances.We also debate which would be worse: being stranded in space or lost at sea. Space offers a quick death but absolute isolation, while the ocean presents the terror of marine predators, storms, and a slower demise. Which would you choose? The conversation highlights how different survival scenarios require unique mental frameworks and coping mechanisms.Whether you're a science fiction fan, a survival enthusiast, or just curious about what it takes to overcome impossible odds, this episode offers both entertainment and practical insights. Join us as we break down what it really takes to survive when you're the only human on an entire planet. Subscribe now and let us know in the comments: what movie should we analyze next?

Kicking off the long holiday weekend. Huskies and Cougs start their 2024 campaign tomorrow, but you will only be able to watch one of them.Heidi Watney, Apple TV joins the show to discuss the Mariners' home stretch of the season before they play on Apple TV tonight. Where does she see the Mariners ending up at the end of the year? T-Mobile Park may be deterring hitters from joining the club. Ty France joined Heidi following the trade with only good things to say about the city but maybe a bit too much information from the analytics group. Where do the players ultimately stand on the analytics side of baseball? Globalization of baseball. The Mariners have a soft schedule coming up but are still in a bad spot with Houston 4 games up and multiple teams to jump in the Wild Card race. Danny O'Neil, The Dang Apostrophe!, joins the show to discuss the Mariners. The team is 4-2 under Dan Wilson, and runs per game have increased. Many of which came in a single game but take what we can get.

We touch on the systemic issues that seem to be within the Mariners' organization and fans looking to move on from not only Jerry Dipoto and ownership.

We talk atomic rockets and nuclear power sources (RTGs) in space. In "The Martian," Watney used a surplus Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator to heat his rover but real spacecraft, like the Galileo and Cassini probes to Jupiter and Saturn, have used nuclear isotopes to power their vast arrays of instruments. And, the amazing Voyager spacecraft still talk to us from beyond the solar system powered by a small plutonium pellet.  Then we warp into the amazing world of atomic rocket engines or Nuclear Thermal Rockets. In old sci-fi movies, everything cool was atomic and rockets were no exception. But did you know that America and the Soviet Union experimented with fission-reactor rockets, with the US actually testing a fission-powered rocket in Nevada for over 90 minutes? And now, they are back, promising to cut travel times to Mars and beyond. Join Rod Pyle and Space.com's Tariq Malik for atomic rockets! We also talk about the war in Ukraine and if Starlink can help connect a besieged country. Plus, that wayward rocket finally hit the moon.
