You've probably heard about Mike Hughes, the guy who supposedly put himself in a rocket of his own creation and launched himself into the sky. But you haven't heard the whole story. You might know he believes the earth is flat. But you haven't heard what else he doesn't believe in. Our man Justin Thurman returns for another Fun Friday to share more of what "Mad" Mike Hughes doesn't believe in, and his future plans.
Also, we average a culturally, or at least topically, relevant name drop every 40 seconds in this episode.
With your feet firmly on the ground, and your necks craned to the sky, give this episode a listen, and have a great weekend.
