Try barista made iced coffees available now at your local McCafe. I have a question. Six months, you are posted for six months solo by yourself either at an Antarctic research centre,

just a small little hut or cabin. So you could go like cabin fever. Is it either winter or summer? Because winter you're lost inside, summer you're a bit more outside. Summer you're more. Let's say summer, but or the other option is you are six months alone solo on the International Space Station. Ooh, I'm never going to space.

Take me to the ice. I hate space. Space is yuck. Space is wrong. It's wrong. No. You'd never do it. Hmm.

Current risks? You're not tampering with risks? You are safely delivered to both Antarctica and the International Space Station there and back. With enough supplies? Yep. You're not going to run out of oxygen in space. You're not going to run out of food. Supply is not an option.

Hell of a view. Hell of a view. Hell of a view. But there would be times. But you'd get that in Antarctica as well. Times where you'd just be overcome with your insignificance. There'd be quietness at both. But at least Antarctica you'd get a bit of wind.

The wind and maybe a penguin. Penguins? Your best friend is a penguin. Your best friend is penguins, yeah. And one day it brings you a rock and you realize you've accidentally married a penguin. What a hilarious story. Oh, my God.

To try to reintegrate back into society. And also, like, the food situation. I know it's limited in Antarctica, but they get to take supplies that are maybe a little bit better than the dried, dehydrated food on the space station. Brush your teeth in Antarctica. It's not going to float off your toothbrush or toothpaste. Going for wheeze.

It ain't going to spray everywhere. Yeah. You're going to have to get your wheeze vacuumed out of you. But like thousands and thousands of people have been to Antarctica. How many people have been to space? So there's that. Just a couple. Just two.

Yeah. There's not many. Shatner. Not many people have been to space? So there's that. Just a couple. Just two. Yeah. There's not many. Shatner? There's not many. And Bezos. He did, though. He did, didn't he? And Armstrong.

Yeah. Yeah. As of July. Probably Antarctica because if something went wrong, it would be easier to get out. Yeah. But if you can promise me nothing's going to go wrong and my wife says it's okay. Space. I've already gone to space.

Because that view would be like unlike anything you've ever seen in your life. Six months is such a long time to be by yourself. Completely by yourself. Yeah. You're allowed to like chat, video call and stuff because you can do that from the space station. Yeah you can but can you do that from Antarctica? No.

You can probably do it from there as well, but I was just double checking that everybody's alright with being able to communicate with your family. As of July 2021, a total of 574 people from 41 countries have gone into space. Because they're not counting Jeff Bezos' dick rocket,

because that's technically an outer... In-N-Out. That's an In-N-Out. Classic Big Dick energy there, quick In-N- outer. In and out. That's an in and out. That's an in and out. Classic big dick energy there, quick in and out. In and out. And it doesn't touch the space level, does it? It goes high enough to see the curvature. I don't know, it goes into, I think it technically goes into space.

But no, but there's a layer they're calling space. They reclassified it, didn't they? So that, yeah, all these people couldn't say they've been to space. Placed an astronaut there, pulled the ladder up behind themselves. Yeah. You know, I've been to space now. I'm going to make it so much harder for everybody else to go to space. Yeah, but Jeff Bezos is a dick rocket.

He's asking for it, isn't he? Yeah. So space for me, Antarctica for Hayley Fletch. You decide. We're doing the show from space. We're doing the show from space. We're doing the show from space for six months. No, I'm so scared.

Is that the podcast done? Because I'm busting for a poos. Busting for a poos. Jesus. Give us a review. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
