Welcome to foundation and podcast the officially unofficial podcast for foundation on Apple TV plus this week. We're considering feedback for season one episode seven mysteries and martyrs respect and enjoy the podcast.

All right, Aaron, here we have some feedback this week.

We do have some feedback. A lot of people, increasing number of people are taking us up on the offer of sending feedback to foundation at ballmove.com and we got a

a a a butt load. Okay. I'm not sure if that that that metric is one the foundation would choose to codify along with their base base tin counting systems and their sun dials, but you know, I

hope they the benefit of the butt load. The benefit of clones is that there are plenty of butts to go around. You've got unlimited numbers of butts. And yeah, if you wanted to fill them and measure you probably could the

identical. It's good as a gram, right? It's as good as the universal measurement, the what they keep the gram somewhere in a mountain somewhere. I'm sure they keep a

Clean butthole somewhere in a mountain filled with silver. And that's the measurement.

Complicated complicating a matter, though, is we're talking about imperial butt loads. These are not metric. These wouldn't be metric.

I got a big period. So I don't know. I don't know how many many butts and loads are. But yeah, foundation of ballmove.com, of course, like we did last week and what we're doing now.

That we've got to feedback episode or we're leasing the main episode before or at the same time that the episode drops is going back and and viewing or listening to the official podcast and kind of catching people up on some of the new

nuggets of information. So yeah, let's do the the concept she own and set she own. Once again, did you have any thoughts that came out of the official podcast that you thought were interesting. I jotted down a couple.

Nothing that stood out to me is like super interesting. I I kind of background listened to it. I mean, that's how people do podcasts, right?

So I was playing games while I was doing it. So I might have missed a thing or two.

I'm a weirdo. I say, well, I'm not a weirdo. I'm just about I sit down here with the Google doc and I'm like, I just yeah, I'm I'm jotting stuff down. Wow. Okay.

Here's the thing. I wonder if they saw a different cut or like there were some last minute changes because some of the things they talked about on the podcast did not ring. Like they were things from the episode that they were watching.

I'm going to actually go to like at the at the very end of this podcast. I got like a semi-spoilery section that I want to talk about stuff that's like lightly from the books and also some of the stuff that they talked about an official podcast. But

for example, you know, one of the things that mystified us is the idea that this Invictus, this dread not thing that's been abandoned in space has been just randomly jumping.

How the hell can humans be on that ship and experience jumps without their main minds being bent and twisted and go insane because we know that that's what's, you know, the spacers are there for right.

David and Jason mentioned something that that this uses an alternate drive system, you know, this is a ship that's a thousand years in the past.

I guess the spacers is a new phenomenon, the new jump drive jump drive, but it uses some kind of alternate jump drive technology that does not require spacers.

In fact, Jason cited that there's a dialogue by Lewis, the foundation director that they Shanghai to kind of, you know, fix their boat to make it go.

He says that you don't plot, they mentioned that you don't plot courses in like a scientific kind of way that like the navigators would collectively wish for a destination and goyer talked about how there's a little bit of like uncertainty theory that, you know, that essentially you are, I don't know, like guiding it between the multiverse and making the ship there's a little almost mysticism to it.
