  <description>Thank you for making me part of your daily routine,  I appreciate your time and your ears! 
I'm still fighting a cold, so apologies for sounding pretty rough in today's episode.  Still, I've got a daily podcast to run, so on with the podcast! 
I'd love if you could share this podcast with someone who enjoys space, so for your weekend homework, pick a friend, send them the link, and let me know if you refer someone to the podcast.  I'd appreciate it! 
If you could do me a favor and leave a review for the podcast, I'd appreciate it!  If you take a screenshot of your review and send it to @johnmulnix, pretty much anywhere on the Internet, I will send you a Space Shot sticker and a thank you!  Be cool like Elisabeth and score a sweet sticker :D
