    Almost as amazing as landing on mars
    WOW, WOW, WOW, I love this show sooo much. Mostly because I am a total model and non model rocket fan.

    General Feedback
    Anthony, I can’t express how much I like your podcast. You make things around NASA Policy very easy to understand. Thank you!
  • Dave Pomerantz
    Great info, to the point
    Great interview with Phil McAlister! The business of NASA and contracts is one of the most important aspects of space flight. It may sound boring, it's not, and it created the new generation of commercial space.

    Without compare
    You are a fantastic journalist. Great interviewer and storyteller, while also providing necessary analysis and background. I would listen to you talk about any subject, but I’m very grateful you’ve dedicated yourself to space news

    great quality
    you’re my geometry teachers brother and I appreciate this content. You best believe I listen during class. If you could do an interview with Brian May that’d be ICONIC. Toodle-oo!
  • Why do i need a nickname 2012
    Best space podcast, very informed
    For me this is the best space industry podcast out there. I worked in the commercial/gov sat industry and now human spaceflight, and Anthony is extremely informed and accurate.

    Houston, We Have a Podcast
    I highly recommend the MECO podcast to anyone who has an interest in space flight, exploration, and strategy. The host, Anthony Colangelo, prepares and delivers an excellent synopsis of the past week’s events related to space flight. He is well versed in the field and clearly researches each topic he presents to bring the listener all relevant information about the subject at hand with a pleasant presentation style. He also provides an excellent assessment and analysis of the ramifications of decisions companies and governments are making with regards to space flight. If you’re a space flight nerd, you’re in for a treat.

    Excellent podcast!
    I really enjoy listening to this podcast and always look forward to new episodes. Anthony is a great host and brings a lot of knowledge to his interviews.
  • Runner722B
    A gem among space podcasts
    There are a lot of space podcasts out there- MECO is a gem. Anthony is super knowledgeable but independent of loyalties which results in candid discussions. I find he's also just good at eloquently summing things up. Pro tip for listeners: read the articles in the show notes ahead of time to be ready to jump into analysis.

    Entertaining, Fun, and to the point
    Every show is fun to listen to and has great info being shared about many players in space from national agencies to private companies. No sponsors so opinions are truly his and love hearing theories of what he thinks might be going on. Keep up the great work and go buy one of the awesome new T-shirt’s if you are into that kind of thing. Love the new stuff!!
  • Cglesner
    Love it! Planning to become a Patron.
    Concise but thoughtful. Equal parts opinion, analysis and news. I feel like Anthony does a good job of keeping an open mind about all players in the industry. He doesn’t reflexively praise SpaceX, but also totally gives them their due. He also is clear eyed about the short comings that ULA (the company I currently work for) has at present, and the challenges it faces going forward, but gives fair consideration to the changes happening there.
  • The samsonator
    Great insight
    Anthony provides a succinct and very insightful analysis of current developments in commercial and government space programs. He does great background investigation and connects the dots which aren’t at all obvious to the casual space geek. I highly recommend adding his podcast to your weekly informational feed to get the essential analysis that most space news outlets don’t have the depth to provide. I especially like that he gives a very balanced report with no fanboy bias and covers both the small guys and the big guys with equally critical thinking.
  • KevinICdesigner
    Tedious repetitions, but improving
    Nice effort, but tighten it up. Far too many repetitions, as if there is no script or even an outline. Amendment: Significantly improves in second year
  • G101gffsswr
    Amazing science and rocket podcast
    I just found this from hearing you on the Are We There Yet? Podcast. This is a great learning podcast for anyone into rocket science. We all need to learn more!
  • huges84
    Tells it like it is
    The host has strong opinions that are based on fact and he explains why he feels that way. Even if you disagree you can appreciate his point of view.
  • ATPTourFan
    Great Summary of Space Developments
    With so much going on in the space industry, MECO keeps the listener up to date on all the important developments from policy to propellant!
  • (space) pat o.
    Excellent source for space news
    This podcast will keep you up to date on the latest happenings in space exploration. While not overly critical, Anthony's honest, unbiased analysis is through a skeptical lens in order to get to the heart of the data. He does a great job of reading between the lines to figure out what things actually mean for the future of spaceflight.
  • jasonl117
    I appreciate the podcast
    Wonderful podcast with good information concerning space exploration. Good analysis of current trends in the aerospace industry. I very much appreciate this intelligent podcast which praises private aerospace companies but also holds them accountable for their failures.
  • Crusty_Sea_Dog
    Great Space Podcast!
    Love this podcast! Some space podcasters talk down to us because they assume many listeners are newbies. This one doesn't do that. Expect to get treated like a seasoned space fan. Bravo!
  • Nik-Schultz
    Great podcast
    Very informative and fun
  • Joerinaldi
    Space, on the ground floor
    Brief but deep, MECO is a crash course (no pun intended) in the most dynamic era of space exploration in the last 50 years.
