Before this BBC podcast kicks off, I'd like to tell you about some others you might enjoy.

My name's Will Wilkin and I Commission Music Podcast for the BBC.

It's a really cool job, but every day we get to tell the incredible stories behind songs,

moments and movements, stories of struggle and success, rises and falls, the funny, the ridiculous.

And the BBC's position, at the heart of British music

means we can tell those stories like no one else.

We were, are and always will be right there at the centre of the narrative.

So whether you want an insightful take on music right now

or a nostalgic deep dive into some of the most famous and infamous moments in music,

check out the music podcasts on BBC Sounds.

We copy it down, Eagle. Listen, uh, tranquility base here. The Eagle has landed.

What we wanted to do when we set out to make this podcast was to look at the landing of Apollo 11 from a fresh angle.

And we found that in the final 13 minutes.

From the moment they lit their engine to begin their descent to Armstrong's immortal words on the surface of a new world. We wanted to take that audio, unpick and unravel every word, every phrase,

every pause and every silence to tell you the stories behind the story.

Flight control, decent to fuel.

So this is what we've been building up to in this episode and the next one,

the 13 minutes in all its glory, for you to listen to, hopefully with fresh ears and the added insight that comes from the incredible cast of characters

we've had the privilege to hear from.

We're going that flight.

We're going that alarm.

Roger, we got you.
