On this week’s Trees in Space, Nate and Jason grapple with emotional monkeys, questionable road trip logistics, and the existential horror of RV toilets you’re not allowed to use. Listen as they debate the anatomy of the “hole song,” the plausibility of 2-day grave-robbing commutes, and whether wearing a monkey suit increases your odds on Tinder. Hilarity ensues, awkward family secrets are blurted out, and both hosts bravely face the cinematic wilds of Sunlight.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trees-in-space-show--5955596/support.
Get your popcorn ready as Jason and Nate hilariously dissect Sleepless in Seattle—the romantic "comedy" where mild stalking, childhood trauma, and questionable 90s parenting collide! Tune in for dramatic readings of bad reviews, the ethics of mental cheating, and the correct way to break up with someone over fine china. Is it a heartfelt classic or just a PSA on why security questions now exist?

Nate and Jason dive headfirst into A Big Bold Beautiful Journey, an artsy romance where doors in the woods lead to Canadian lighthouses, drama nerd flashbacks, and Whoppers with or without cheese. Alongside a GPS sales pitch laced with more F-bombs than a Quentin Tarantino script, the hosts debate whether dancing equals sex and if Margot Robbie’s face morphs into Emma Stone. Verdict: four trees, one stump, and zero USBs in Saturns.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trees-in-space-show--5955596/support.
If you’ve ever woken up and thought, “Haven’t I read this newsletter before?”—don’t worry, you’re NOT trapped in a Groundhog Day-style time loop (as far as we know…). But we did just release a new episode where Jason and Nate relive every hilarious, existential, and oddly sinister moment of the 1993 comedy classic, Groundhog Day. 🌲 Episode Recap: Groundhog Day Audio Only Here’s the scoop: Ever wondered what happens when you trap a grumpy weatherman (Bill Murray) in a blizzard and 24-hour time loop? Spoiler: plenty of confusion, makeout sessions, and possibly demonic insurance agents. Jason dives deep into the “Groundhog Day plot holes” (Nancy disappears and reappears like a woodland spirit—what’s up with that?), while Nate explores important theories like: “Is Ned actually the devil?” We’re not saying yes, but we’re not saying no. There’s also an alarming realization that if you repeat a day long enough, you too could earn a medical degree, learn French, play piano like a pro, and possibly manipulate an entire town into thinking you’re a saint. Neat… and kinda scary. Wild Theories, Classic Jokes & Epic Shoutouts We cover it all: Is it Phil’s day that has to go “right”—or could the universe just be waiting for Ned Ryerson to finally sell his life insurance policy? Did Bill Murray rock the Clint Eastwood look? (Spoiler: Yes—cowboy hats tip to him) Why does the Groundhog get treated better than most humans, and is there an actual science to the "see your shadow = six more weeks of winter" biz? Our answer: probably not. Hot Takes from Listeners (and Us): “Worst movie ever made.” —Unimpressed Reviewer “Why isn’t this 100% on Rotten Tomatoes?” —Fervent Fan (and Jason’s new best friend) Both Jason and Nate agree: Andy McDowell is a national treasure and, yes, attractive enough for this or any other time loop. 🎧 Listen now, share with a friend, and let us know in the comments: Would you embrace a time loop? Or just eat all the donuts in Punxsutawney? Catch you next Monday on Trees in Space—unless we’re stuck in yesterday, again. (And again. And again.)

Hey Space Explorers! 🌲👾 We’re BEYOND pumped to drop this week’s brand new episode of Trees in Space, where your hosts Jason and Nate took on the 2025 Amazon original action-comedy Deep Cover—and trust us, the ride is wilder than a method-acting improv student on a Vespa. If you missed the thumbnail: Bryce Dallas Howard, Orlando Bloom, and Nick Mohammed walk into London's gangland pretending to be dangerous criminals—all because Sean Bean's undercover cop needs a favor. What could possibly go wrong? (Spoiler: a lot.) Here’s what you’ll discover in this week’s hilariously honest review: 🌟 5 Things You’ll Take Away from the Episode What Happens When Genres Collide: Our hosts weigh in on whether the film’s blend of Lord of the Rings, Jurassic Park, Ted Lasso, and John Wick is a recipe for gold or just cinematic Mad Libs. Streaming Originals: Blessing or Curse? Jason and Nate debate why some streaming movies can’t find their footing and if Deep Cover falls into the “could have been a classic” pit. Lighting Woes: Was it your TV or was the whole movie just… super dark? The guys commiserate over the shadowy cinematography—especially during those questionable chase scenes. Improv Gone Wild: Hear Jason and Nate break down why improv teachers and gangsters don’t always mix, and who truly nailed (or flubbed) their comedy chops. What Critics AND Fans Think: Get the scoop on the Rotten Tomatoes scores (90% critics, 79% audience!?) and how our hosts’ tree ratings compare. 🍄 Fun Fact from the Episode Did you know that Nate spotted absolutely NO boobies in this movie, while Jason claims there were some hiding behind Bryce Dallas Howard’s head during a strip club scene? Tune in to see if you can spot them—or if, just maybe, Nate needs to up his observational skills. 😂 🌳 Outro Whether you’re team “best streaming comedy find” or “I want my two hours back,” you’re bound to relate to at least one of this week’s wild listener reviews. Plus, if you’ve ever wondered how British improv actors would fare at drug deals, this is your episode. 🚀 Call to Action So, what’s your tree rating for Deep Cover?

Welcome to a very merry and irreverent holiday episode of Trees in Space! This week, hosts Nate and Jason deck the podcast halls with the hilariously blasphemous classic, Monty Python’s Life of Brian. With Nate’s questionable history teacher VHS recommendations (don’t worry, he was 18—barely legal), and Jason’s newly shaven face (is there a colder mug in podcasting?), the duo bravely unwraps every absurd, politically incorrect, and surprisingly forward-thinking gag from the 1979 comedy.From aliens randomly abducting Brian mid-movie (seriously, why was that ship flying by?!), to the legendary “Biggest Dickus” and the eternal debate of gourd vs. sandal, they roast—sorry, “review”—everything that makes Life of Brian a perennial cult favorite and an unintentional Christmas movie (thanks, wrong address-wise men).Along the way, you’ll hear nostalgia, heated stump bumps (don’t ask, but somehow it involves nudity), and a smattering of serious hot takes about the film’s not-so-subtle jabs at religion, politics, and the many forms of human ridiculousness. If you’ve ever wondered why critiquing ancient Rome feels eerily familiar, or just want a good laugh courtesy of Monty Python’s holy chaos, get your holiday cheer (and maybe subtitles) ready! This episode is equal parts smart, silly, and satirical—and always looks on the bright side of life.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trees-in-space-show--5955596/support.
Hey everyone and welcome back to Trees in Space, the podcast where we dig into movies like we’re rooting around in the backyard for that lost frisbee. This week, Jason and Nate are putting on their thermal underwear, firing up their snowmobiles, and serving up audio-only, Midwestern warfare as they review the 1993 comedy classic Grumpy Old Men. What happens when two sarcastic, fish-gut-flinging old neighbors—armed with decades of petty pranks and an arsenal of snowmobiles—fall headlong into a geriatric love triangle with a new firecracker lady across the street?Well, it’s heaters-on-high, pride on ice, and more late-life romance than you can shake a fishing pole at! From miserable taxes, spicy casseroles, and epic ice fishing fails to the kind of friendly neighborhood rivalry that makes you simultaneously want to hug your neighbor and put a fish in his car, Jason and Nate break down the laughs, the cringe, and all the heartfelt moments. Is Grumpy Old Men a Christmas movie? Or just the kind of holiday gathering that involves more insults than hugs? And just how many trees (and stumps) does this frosty feud deserve? Tune in for a review so lively, it’ll melt the Minnesota ice—and maybe inspire you to call your crankiest relative. Stay with us for fan feedback, critic grumbles, and the legendary Pops with the best (and worst) double entendres you’ve ever heard. So kick back, feed the algorithm monster, take a chance, and join us on Trees in Space for Grumpy Old Men—where the only thing colder than the weather is the neighborly sarcasm.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trees-in-space-show--5955596/support.
Welcome back to Trees in Space—the only podcast daring enough to watch Rocky IV through untrained, nostalgia-laced eyeballs, while arguing if a boxing movie set in Siberia counts as a Christmas classic. This week, hosts Nate and Jason take on the 1985 Cold War punchfest where hearts are broken, robots get waxed, and the US and USSR duke it out in the ring…on December 25th. Jason comes in swinging with all the reasons Rocky IV doesn’t really feel like a sports movie (spoiler: it's mostly montages and music videos), while Nate tries valiantly to explain what’s happening despite never having seen the first three Rocky's. Together, they attempt to piece together why Rocky needs to avenge Apollo Creed, debate whether dying makes Apollo a compelling character, and question the efficiency of the Dragos’ marriage techniques. From Paulie’s questionable robot obsession to the surprisingly patriotic boxing match that, according to one reviewer, might have single-handedly defeated communism, the duo breaks down everything that makes Rocky IV a beloved-but-bizarre holiday tradition. And yes, they're rating it with trees. So grab your VHS, lace up your gloves, and get ready for more hot takes than a Russian power punch—this is the Trees in Space show, where the only rule is: never be friends with Rocky if you value your survival. Let’s get ready to rumble!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trees-in-space-show--5955596/support.
Welcome back to Trees in Space, the podcast where your favorite film-loving duo takes movies with trees (sometimes metaphorical, sometimes literal), flings them into the cinematic cosmos, and hacks through the underbrush of plot, character, and whatever else grows wild in 80s action flicks.This week, Jason and Nate tackle the 1987 classic Lethal Weapon—the movie that asks, "What if Christmas wasn't about presents and family, but instead about bullets, bad decisions, and Mel Gibson’s mullet?" The guys dig into whether Lethal Weapon is truly a Christmas movie or just Die Hard’s chaotic cousin, why the most awkward birthday in cinema involves a bathtub, and whether the infamous ‘stump bump’ means anything if there’s too much eggnog flying around.With explosive takes on everything from suspicious Christmas decorations to Danny Glover’s questionable running style, this episode promises action, nostalgia, and deep existential questions like, “Seriously, was that a Santa on the roof or just leftover pizza?” Plus, they weigh in on what the critics thought, what the fans thought, and more importantly—would they recommend it to their surgeon? (Spoiler: at least one stump is involved.) Get ready to laugh, reminisce, and possibly reevaluate your holiday movie playlist—Lethal Weapon is locked, loaded, and about to crash-land into your podcast feed!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trees-in-space-show--5955596/support.
Welcome to Trees in Space, where our fearless hosts Nate and Jason take movie debates to galactic levels—even if only one of them thinks Die Hard should orbit in the Christmas movie universe. In this episode, Nate admits to finally watching Die Hard from start to finish (yes, really), while Jason clings desperately to his "not a Christmas film" badge with the passion of a man who just stepped on Lego barefoot. Together, they dissect office party chaos, German terrorists with questionable shoe sizes, the mystery of disappearing bodies, and exactly how much blood you can lose before your shirt changes color entirely. From discussing whether John McClane’s magical vent-crawling skills are part of Santa’s canon to giving critical stump bumps for unexpected boobies, this episode asks: Is Die Hard overrated, too long, or just the right ratio of holiday carols and machine guns? Plus, they read out some gloriously unhinged internet reviews, compare Hans Gruber’s thievery to Schindler’s List mechanics, and finally—after much debate—agree that Die Hard is NOT a Christmas movie, but definitely worthy of movie night with your surgeon. Tune in for action, snark, debates, and at least one host wishing a mild curse on whoever started the “Die Hard Is a Christmas Movie” tradition. It’s all here, in this week’s festive (but not too festive) episode of Trees in SpaceBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trees-in-space-show--5955596/support.
Welcome back to Trees in Space—the only podcast where your movie opinions get the oxygen they deserve, and every genre is fair game! This week, Jason and Nate take us on an epic road trip down memory lane with the 1994 comedy classic “Dumb and Dumber.” Yes, the one with Jim Carrey sucking his thumb in a toilet stall, a briefcase full of cash, and more haircut disasters than a bargain barbershop. Jason and Nate try to squeeze every ounce of comedic lemon from this cult favorite, debating which guy is dumb and which guy is dumber (and finally settling it, for the sake of humanity). They reminisce over iconic moments—dead parakeets sold to blind kids, some creative uses for taco seasoning, and a cop with the worst luck in beverage selection. The duo also tackles legendary lines (“So you’re saying there’s a chance!”), questionable road trip logic (Aspen to Lincoln, anyone?), and hotel payment mysteries only the ’90s could provide. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’d recommend this movie to a surgeon (spoiler: please don’t), or how Adam Sandler and Jim Carrey got confused for each other in a one-star review, this is the episode for you. Buckle up for laughs, nostalgia, and a healthy dose of groan-worthy bathroom humor as the guys determine if “Dumb and Dumber” is worthy of an entire forest or just a lonely stump. Hit play and join Jason and Nate as they witness the madness, read the wildest reviews, and decide if this classic holds up—one stump at a time. 00:00 "Trees in Space: Dumb & Dumber"Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trees-in-space-show--5955596/support.
Welcome back to Trees in Space! This week, Nate and Jason dive face-first into the absurd fever dream that is the 2023 film "Dream Scenario," starring the perpetually perplexed Nicolas Cage as a hapless family man who accidentally becomes the most unwanted viral sensation—by showing up in millions of strangers’ dreams, and not in a sexy way. Is it fantasy? Horror? Comedy? Drama? Or just proof that cinema sometimes likes to leave you with more questions than answers and a really awkward fart joke? Join our hosts as they unpack Cage’s transformation from invisible professor to dream-dwelling nightmare, debate whether social media cancel culture is scarier than the actual nightmares, and try to figure out if anyone—ANYONE—dreamed about barbecue. There’s talk of MacGuffins, accidental bodily explosions, random loogies on sandwiches, hammer-induced existential crises, and enough amateur psychoanalysis to make Freud spin in his grave. Listen in for their own delightfully chaotic hot takes, a fresh batch of weird and wonderful online reviews—including one listener who thinks the best part of the whole movie is Cage’s flatulence—and, of course, the world’s weirdest five-star ratings. Want closure, catharsis, or at least an explanation for what you just watched? Too bad! As Nate and Jason discover, Dream Scenario leaves you dangling in the wind…just like poor Nicolas Cage’s belt loop. So grab your popcorn (and maybe a therapist), and tune in for a guaranteed trip through cinematic confusion. It’s Trees in Space, where even bad movies get their moment in the spotlight—farts and all.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trees-in-space-show--5955596/support.
Welcome to another wild ride on Trees in Space! This week, your hosts Nate and Jason sink their teeth into the 1985 cult classic (or is it?) Teen Wolf, starring a young, pre-time-traveling Michael J. Fox. In this episode, they unravel the "plot"—if you can call it that—of a movie where a high schooler morphs into a werewolf with barely a whimper from anyone, basketball teams are inexplicably stacked with 30-year-olds, and the soundtrack is soaked in gloriously cheesy ‘80s synth. Nate and Jason tackle the questionable hijinks of whipped cream house parties, legendary irresponsible party kegs, and wardrobe decisions that would confuse even Madonna. They ask the important questions, like: Why is nobody shocked at a werewolf slam dunking buckets? Why is the love interest making out with everyone (in costume changes worthy of a Madonna concert)? Where the heck is the plot? And can merely swapping a word let you steal Spider-Man’s catchphrase? Packed with hilarious breakdowns, pointed listener reviews, and a firm refusal to recommend this movie to their surgeons, this episode is part nostalgia trip, part fashion nightmare, and part werewolf identity crisis. Whether you remember doing the Thriller dance at prom or just wonder what the heck movies got away with in the ‘80s, “Teen Wolf Audio Only” will have you howling with laughter—and maybe scratching your head at just how weirdly charming a cinematic trainwreck can be.

Welcome back to Trees in Space, where your favorite movie-loving duo, Jason and Nate, blast off through the galaxy of cinema armed with nostalgia, questionable judgment, and more movie quotes than is probably healthy for two grown men. This week, the guys climb aboard the 1980 comedic flight of fancy, Airplane!, a film so packed with rapid-fire jokes, parody, and timeless one-liners that the only thing landing safely is your sense of humor. Get ready for a high-flying analysis fueled by contagious laughter, random deep cuts, and the shared realization that comedy in the ’80s was both edgy and endlessly quotable. The guys dissect everything from Leslie Nielsen’s breakthrough deadpan to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s “I’m just here to fly the plane, kid” energy, and of course, that infamous “bump” that somehow snuck past the original PG rating. This episode is your boarding pass to everything that makes Airplane! a cult classic—utterly ridiculous, unexpectedly smart, and maybe just a little bit problematic by today’s standards (but hey, that’s what makes it worth the trip down memory runway). So buckle up, put your seat backs in the upright position, and try not to spit out your coffee from laughing, because surely you can’t be serious about missing this one (and yes, we’re serious—and don’t call us Shirley).Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trees-in-space-show--5955596/support.
Get ready for another brutally honest review as Jason and Nate tackle the 1981 horror classic, Halloween 2. This isn’t their first attempt—their initial review was lost to the void—but this time, nothing will stop them from breaking down Michael Myers' hospital rampage. Why this re-review happened and how recording mishaps impact the show The absurd logic and underpopulated setting of Haddonfield Memorial Hospital Unpacking plot holes, questionable character decisions, and Michael Myers' supernatural invincibility A look at standout kill scenes, behind-the-scenes inconsistencies, and misplaced suspense The final verdict: stump-worthy ratings, fan and critic review highlights, and whether it’s worth your time Don’t forget to comment, like, and subscribe for more movie dissections every Monday on Trees in Space!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trees-in-space-show--5955596/support.
Welcome back to Trees in Space, the only podcast with roots in outer space and branches in the world of ridiculous cinema! This week, Jason and Nate boldly venture where no critics should ever have to go: the cinematic graveyard of 2018’s The VelociPastor. After unearthing this fossilized fever dream, the guys struggle to define what, exactly, they’ve watched—is it horror? Comedy? The missing link between “Dexter” and “Kung Pao: Enter the Fist?” One thing’s for certain: it’s so bad, it’s kind of perfect. Listen in as Nate and Jason recount the saga of a priest who, after a spiritual quest to “China” (read: a handful of backyard trees), gains the power to turn into a dinosaur and fight crime—guided by a wise (and, apparently, wonderful) hooker with a heart of gold. They’ll dissect the movie’s questionable FX, killer one-liners, and the surprising acting chops of a leading lady who might just be the film’s saving grace. Expect hot takes, laugh-out-loud moments, and shamelessly nitpicked movie magic—plus plenty of side-splitting reviews from audiences who either loved this absurdity or couldn’t survive the CGI. Whether you’re a disciple of the “so-bad-it’s-good” genre or just here for the banter, grab your communion wine—err, grape juice—and get ready for a review that’ll leave you howling like an unhinged White Ninja.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trees-in-space-show--5955596/support.
Welcome back to Trees in Space, the movie review podcast where we hack our way through films of all genres and tell you which ones are “worthy of the forest” and which deserve no more than a rotting stump. In this episode, hosts Nate and Jason bravely enter the woods of questionable horror logic as they revisit Friday the 13th Part 2—the 1981 (oops, Nate calls it 1982!) slasher sequel that brought Jason Voorhees out of the lake and onto dry land… despite having already killed him off in the original. The guys break down everything from confusing timelines (Was Jason supposed to be 12? 33? Bad at math? Yes!) to continuity errors that’ll make your head spin faster than a machete swing. They debate essential cinematic issues like: Did we really need that four-minute flashback? (Spoiler: no.) Is farmhand-strength Jason scary, or just a guy with a flour sack on his head who struggles with Paul in a fistfight? And what’s the deal with the world’s worst plumbing, cars that break down on cue, and counselors who apparently don’t notice their cars being towed away right in front of them? Expect a hilarious exchange about the film’s logic gaps, counting errors, brown underwear (seriously), which on-screen scares land—and which kills are strictly for the stunt bump. Plus: one host defends the movie’s place in the Friday the 13th mythos, while the other recommends it only as a form of light torture… for your least favorite sibling. Get ready, because this isn’t just a review—this is an autopsy with jokes, messy plot threads, and just enough campfire storytelling to make you paranoid the next time you hear a twig snap. Grab your hockey mask, fire up your skepticism, and join us for a romp through the hilariously flawed woods of Friday the 13th Part 2 on Trees in Space!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trees-in-space-show--5955596/support.
Welcome back to Trees in Space, where we bravely plow through every bizarre movie genre the universe can throw at us—armed only with questionable nostalgia, overly honest hot takes, and the kinds of jokes that only make sense to people who may or may not still be thirteen at heart. This week, your hosts Nate and Jason take a hilariously awkward deep dive into the cult-classic oddity that is Frankenhooker (1990). Imagine: a medical school dropout, a tragic lawnmower “accident,” a fiancée whose head ends up in a fish tank, and a super-convoluted plan to reassemble lost love with... let’s just call them “parts” from New York’s finest streetwalkers—and a lot of super crack. Yes, you read that right. Nate and Jason duke it out over whether Frankenhooker is a misunderstood B-movie treasure or a monstrous mishmash of questionable prosthetics and even more questionable plot choices. Expect breakdowns of the film’s delightfully terrible special effects, philosophical debates on purple hair, explosive reviews (literally... exploding people everywhere), and a heartfelt appreciation for practical effects over bad CGI—all with a splash of 90s VHS charm. By the end, you'll have heard five-star worship, one-star rants, and a ratings system so convoluted even Jason has trouble explaining the difference between “four trees and a stump” and “one tree with a stump.” If you’re in the mood for a review that's as weirdly captivating as the film itself, you’re in for a treat. So grab your remote-controlled lawnmower, pour one out for Elizabeth’s head, and get ready: it’s time for Trees in Space to go where no (sane) reviewer has gone before—into the wild, stitched-together world of Frankenhooker.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trees-in-space-show--5955596/support.
We’ve laced up for another week of movie magic, and this episode is packed with throwbacks, witticisms, and everything Robert Redford. On the latest episode of Trees in Space, Jason and Nate take on the 1992 hacker heist comedy-thriller, Sneakers. From its legendary cast to its very ‘90s depiction of tech, we cracked open what makes this cult classic (and maybe the occasional Volkswagen) tick.Here’s what you’ll uncover in this episode:5 Keys You'll Learn This Week:What Sets “Sneakers” Apart: Get a breakdown of the plot and why this hacker heist stands out among other 90s thrillers.Why the Cast Has Us Geeking Out: Jason and Nate wax poetic about legends like Redford, Sidney Poitier, Dan Aykroyd (in a role you might not expect), and a younger Ben Kingsley lookalike.Is It a Heist or a Laugh Attack? The hosts debate if “Sneakers” lands as a true thriller or if it’s more about clever one-liners and quirky team dynamics.Tech Talk – 90s Style: They question just how plausible the hacking and code-breaking tech really is, and whether you could, in fact, crawl through those drop ceilings (spoiler: don’t try this at the office).Nostalgia vs. New Eyes: Was this the “Ocean’s Eleven” before “Ocean’s Eleven”? How does it hold up decades later, and does the younger generation buy into the ‘92 hype?Fun Fact from the Episode:Did you know Dan Aykroyd’s conspiracy-loving character foreshadows his future gig as a paranormal/pseudoscience host on the History Channel? Only on Trees in Space do you get that kind of full-circle movie trivia!As always, Jason and Nate don’t entirely agree—was this a forest of movie greatness, or was it more like sitting on a lonely stump? Tune in for the banter, stay for the honest reviews, and learn why Robert Redford is your grandma’s George Clooney.Ready to join the hacking, high-jinks, AND hilarity?👉 WATCH THE FULL EPISODE ON YOUTUBEOr hit reply and tell us your favorite heist movie (bonus points if it includes a broken Volkswagen)!Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe—feed the aggregate monster!We’ll see you next week, and remember: in the world of Trees in Space, there are never too many secrets…unless you don’t press play.Thanks for being part of our movie-loving crew!The Trees in Space Team 🌲✨Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trees-in-space-show--5955596/support.
