| 0:00.0 | The Ladies and gentlemen welcome to oral presentations episode 8 oh yeah |
| 0:25.1 | episode 8 Apollo 8 like it's meant to be you know what I'm saying I think the actual |
| 0:31.1 | title of this one is going to be Apollo 8 Road Trip. |
| 0:36.4 | All right, so here's the only the reason I picked this one is because the only rocket ship knowledge I have about any of this is from the movie |
| 0:46.6 | Apollo 13 with Tom Hanks. It's like embarrassing to me, but I don't really talk about it much but all like because I live in America and I kind of know we went to the moon like I just take full credit |
| 1:01.0 | for acting like I know shit about what even happened at all. |

| 1:48.2 | let's see what's going on here. I also I also like this topic because this was I have like a theory that America as a country |
| 1:57.1 | used to do big cool stuff that was like more or less apolitical and like going to the moon is a great example of that. |
| 2:03.7 | There was just like a big cool thing. |
| 2:06.0 | The whole country was like, we're all, all right, we're going to the moon. |
| 2:09.1 | And nobody talked about like what's going to cost, whatever else. |
