  <description>In today's episode you’ll hear from Gene Kranz. He was speaking at the Wings Over the Rockies Museum for an Apollo 11 pre-launch breakfast. Thanks again to Ben and everyone at the museum for hosting this event and letting me share the audio from that day with all of you. Bear with me on the audio. We were inside a hangar, so the acoustics weren’t ideal for a podcast, but it was an awesome place to be. Check out the Wings Over the Rockies museum next time you’re in Colorado. There’s some beautiful aircraft on display and it’s worth a stop!
