WELCOME BAAACK to The Astrocast!
THANK YOU to our newest Patreon Members, CAboutIt, Eric, and Gordon!
This week, Roo takes you through some rather disheartening trends for the USA in the Astro market, talks about early Nebula (The Iris!) as well as a hallucination of a new astro product followed by SWEET SWEET VICTORY a few minutes later, when he was vindicated by none other than our AI Overlords!
