We’re going to SPACE, y’all! Today: an interview with someone I
deeply admire, NASA astronaut Dr. Jessica Meir, who called into
Project Swagger from the International Space Station 250 miles
above Earth. We made podcast history: this is the first interview a
Vox Media show has ever recorded from space! We get into all
the details of her life in orbit: from how Dr. Meir prepared for
the mental and physical challenge of going to space, how she works
out in microgravity, and how she stays connected with her
three-year-old daughter back home. Talking to Dr.
Meir fills me with awe, and I hope this episode brings you the
same feeling. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
