The Cosmic Pizza Podcast brings you Episode 99: The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.   Unfortunately, this month, due to circumstances beyond our control, we have not been able to get together and record our planned “slice of life”. This has been postponed until after Episode 100. In the meantime, here is a review of the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy that Paul recorded way back in 2014 as part of the Rusted Robot’s, Rivet’s Ready Room. It was also used in the Sci-Fi Waffle podcast in 2016, so apologies if you have heard it before, but we think 9 years is a long enough period between repeat airings. We will be back with a bang next month with a whole new look, as we release our new podcast artwork and as a celebration of our 100th episode we will be releasing the this episode only, on YouTube! Meanwhile, enjoy your journey around the galaxy with this review. What are your thoughts on this episode?

Are Canadian birthdays any better or worse than UK birthdays. Will Kacey have enough birthdays to remember? Join the Pizza Gang to find out. What are your thoughts on this episode?
