The 42cast Episode 278: Spatial Orientation

For All Mankind

For four seasons For All Mankind has told an alternate history of our world. Set in a world where the space race continued, because the Russians put a man on the moon first, the series tells a generational saga about humanity’s exploration of space. With a fully fleshed out alternate universe and a hopeful yet pragmatic bent the series is truly unique in the television landscape. In this episode we take a look at the first four seasons of For All Mankind. We talk about the unique features of the series that make it a draw for viewers. We discuss the alternative nature of the universe and what lessons we can draw from it for our own. Along the way we get into our favorite characters, mental health, and what we want to see in season five!

Due to time constraints is no five-minute controversy this time.

This week Director Faber, Shaun, Ashley, and Nate join the cast.
