EPISODE 148 | The Visitors: 3I/ATLAS & Friends
Something is happening right now that maybe we should all pay at least a little bit of attention to.
It’s time to break out the nice dishes and give the place a good dusting, because we have company folks. We have a visitor.
Probably a comet. But maybe not, according to some. Maybe it's an alien spaceship with bad intent. And it’s coming to get us.
UPDATE: Nothing happened. What a surprise.
