Hello, welcome to podcast number 95. I believe of the blind by podcast. I'm happy to say that this week I

get to open with a piece of prose that was submitted by Hollywood actor, Michael Fassbender.

Michael Fassbender has sent in a sharp piece of, he called it a poem. I personally think it's more of the

piece of prose or even a short essay. So before we begin I'm going to read out Michael Fassbender's

piece of prose which doesn't have a title. Elon Musk flew me to Jupiter in his rocket. No one has

seen this rocket yet. Only me and Elon have. We landed on a sea of gas with an atmospheric pressure

thousands of times greater than that on earth. The sun was much larger than it was back home.

Elon informed me that the temperature was 24,000 degrees Celsius but that the reason neither of us

were burned to a crisp or crushed by the atmosphere was because our friendship was so strong.

He took out a needle and I let him pierce my ear. We both wore studded earrings.

After six months of wearing I started earring. We were allowed to put in a gold sleeper earring.

But on Jupiter, six months is six years back home but we didn't mind waiting.

We were both wearing jarts as electrical storms unlike anything you have ever seen

loomed above. Elon remarked that these storms were like Dante's vision of hell.

I said I didn't know what that meant. So we started talking about snoker and we wondered whether

you could play snoker on Jupiter. With such extreme atmospheric pressure, Elon reckoned he could

figure out a way to do it and I believed him. Jarts are like shards but they are made out of denim.

So it means jean shards but we just said jarts which is the portamento of both worlds

because we don't have time to say jean shards. Because we are too busy having fun on Jupiter.

So we just said jarts instead. Thank you very much Michael Fassbender.

That was fantastic. That really that was quite touching and moving and thank you so much for

listening to the podcast and for sending that in.
