Daniel explores the final frontier with retired NASA astronaut Steve Swanson, who did three spacewalks, spent more than six months on the International Space Station, and is all too familiar with space bathroom etiquette.

Dropping Benny Hill and Counting Crows deep cut references within 1:15 of the episode and both make me smirk. Damn Tosh.

[@MrCurstesy]

Tosh is the good version of the Joe Rogan podcast. Not just the same cycle of comedians interviewing comedians that other shows became; instead, we get to watch a great comedian have funny and interesting conversations with cool people.

[@Dime_time333]

Both are good calm down

[@Wolf-vc4wj]

​@@Dime_time333they didn't sound too worked up. It's ok if people don't all like the same people.

[@JeffWirsing]

@@Dime_time333 Rogan has so many ya-hoos on...cant watch it. Just feels douchey

[@evant5554]

When you do almost 2200 pods you're bound to have repeat visits. Plus Rogan is just like Tosh in that they've both made it a point that they're only going to have on people THEY find interesting. If it jives with who the audience wants to see it's just a bonus

[@forrestnutter]

How does Daniel always have somebody on that I think "this will be a boring episode for my dumb brain." and yet I'm always enthralled.

[@rodanvsandrew]

People are actually pretty interesting, broadly speaking, and this podcast is great for demonstrating that.

[@randomnobody8770]

Because Daniel is that kind of interviewer.

[@Confirm_selection]

The previous one was totally boring.

[@knew_man]

"And one was a duck with ridiculous feet." Wow. That made me LOL so hard. Such a quick little detail.

[@user-uj4dd1te5g]

Who knew that an interview between a Florida surfer/comedian and a doctoral astronaut would be so amazing?

Amazing interview and I hope to have an ounce of that energy at 73, holy smokes how well put together.

He's 73?! He looks *43* ! 😮 Good catch, I need to rewatch this. I absolutely love that Tosh has made this podcast/show ❤

[@donniechappelle5530]

I look forward to this podcast every Tuesday morning. Tosh interviewing non celebrities and it at times being way more interesting than a celebrity is something he needs more credit for tapping into. Good shit always !

Listen, if Disney and Marvel can cram a bunch of actors and actresses in a movie, then your son can have a never ending roster in his bedtime stories.

[@d4mdcykey]

Saying "WTF are you doing?!" and freezing during your first space walk may be one of the most awesome things I've ever heard. You think of these people as stoic, nothing enters their head but the mission, never waver, etc. but to hear one of them exclaim what we all would in that huge moment was really great, I woke my dog laughing.

What SpaceX is doing now is blowing billions of taxpayer dollars on the dumbest launch vehicle ever conceived. The only way you can "like what they are doing" now is if you are profoundly ignorant.

[@Rary.0]

haha i love that he brought those gifts for Tosh

[@jdholwick]

I've watched Tosh.0 and his stand-up for years. I greatly appreciate his rational view point on essentially all things. This particular one was nice. I don't believe in ghosts, for the record.

[@xRamZx]

I graduated from a northwest Florida high school in 2003 and also received a laminated wallet sized diploma!

[@TheOriginalArchie]

I never watched much Tosh show, only because I didn't watch TV at all, I only saw snippets on the internet. I love podcasts though, since the beginning. When I first clicked on this pod, his wife's gynecologist, I was instantly in. I didn't think I would like it because it's not a "normal" podcast idea. The crazy thing is, I didn't know that episode was the FIRST episode until the other day. I went to see if I missed anything, because I LOVE THIS. Low and behold, I've been here since the first episode.

[@Chroniclilskip27]

I used to work for NASA/ISS. This was a lot of fun to watch lol. I always said going to the bathroom would be the one thing deterring me from going. I think they've since upgraded the bathroom, but idk what the new one is like
