First 90 seconds

  1. Michelle Andrews· Host0:00

    I've done the thing I desperately did not wanna do in 2026.

  2. Zara McDonald· Host0:03

    Ever admit we're wrong?

  3. Michelle Andrews· Host0:05

    No, I'm happy to admit I'm wrong.

  4. Zara McDonald· Host0:07

    Oh.

  5. Michelle Andrews· Host0:07

    I never want to upset the women in STEM.

  6. Zara McDonald· Host0:09

    [laughs] [laughs] I was like, what have we done?

  7. Michelle Andrews· Host0:11

    I... Oh, fuck.

  8. Zara McDonald· Host0:13

    Was it something to do with the moon?

  9. Michelle Andrews· Host0:14

    I've ups- yeah, it, it is. I've upset the community that means the most to me.

  10. Zara McDonald· Host0:18

    Did I say something about the women in STEM?

  11. Michelle Andrews· Host0:21

    No, I just said that the moon landing could've been fake [laughs] and the women in STEM- Oh, [laughs] I think you said it a little stronger than that [laughs] The women in STEM have rightfully, totally understandably, had an issue with me saying that.

  12. Zara McDonald· Host0:34

    This would be a perfect cancellation though. Michelle Andrews canceled- [laughs] [laughs] For positing that the moon landing may have been fake.

  13. Michelle Andrews· Host0:41

    And I do wanna say an unreserved apology to every woman in STEM. I do wanna do a shout-out to Alex.

  14. Zara McDonald· Host0:47

    Yes.

  15. Michelle Andrews· Host0:48

    I would say Alex, our high priestess of the STEM club.

  16. Zara McDonald· Host0:52

    Sh.

  17. Michelle Andrews· Host0:52

    Can I read her email?

  18. Zara McDonald· Host0:53

    Please.

  19. Michelle Andrews· Host0:54

    Some correspondence from Alex this week. "Longtime listener, first-time caller. Hopefully I can answer some of your questions, Michelle, as a member of the Women in STEM Club. My credentials, I'm an astrophysicist."

  20. Zara McDonald· Host1:04

    [laughs] Well- So, so- Welcome, Alex [laughs] I don't know why you listen to us.

  21. Michelle Andrews· Host1:08

    [laughs] She's worked in the space industry- She's- ... for over a decade She doesn't listen to Dumb Stuff Fridays, Jo. [laughs] Oh, no.

  22. Zara McDonald· Host1:13

    She won't be hearing this.

  23. Michelle Andrews· Host1:14

    She has personally worked alongside astronauts, including Buzz Aldrin.

  24. Zara McDonald· Host1:18
