Summary

LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With! Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the intergalactic planetary official NASA Astronaut JEANETTE EPPS! Call it a curveball but you have our word, this episode (Epps-isode) is a wonderful one, and a totally perfect temporary departure from your regularly scheduled guest list! Jeanette is a delightful presence and utterly essential listening for anyone who is in the least bit interested in space and astronaut life. You'll hear how the whole thing came together but take comfort in knowing that all pertinent questions get answered (not just the film ones - like actual space logistics and how it all works up there), and by the end you'll be a definite pal of Jeanette's and hopefully follow her adventures from here on. Really lovely stuff from someone who's been putting in work and time into all sorts of space research, as well as literally doing a couple of stints living underwater and in a cave. But that's for you to hear more about. ENJOY! Video and extra audio available on Brett's Patreon!
