The HeadStuff Podcast

Episode 21 – Joseph Roche

By Alan Bennett

Mars One bad boy Joseph Roche joins us on The HeadStuff Podcast to run his mouth about all things sciencey in typical bad boy fashion. We talk about Irish Nobel Prizes, Mars, the Carl Sagan/Brian Cox Effect, Barack Obama, science education and communication, the Hubble Space Telescope, NASA, and just loads of cool stuff. We also talk about The Martian (not Joe), Interstellar and Gravity. Richard Dawkins and Neil DeGrasse Tyson also make brief appearances in the conversation – they’re talked about, they don’t themselves appear.
