Race to Mars! Apr 08, 2026

Show notes

In a global competition for a one-trillion-pound prize, a British boy genius, a crew of intelligent Nigerian chickens, a sheep, and a team of penguins from New Zealand all launch to race to Mars.

The journey quickly devolves into chaos as the teams face mechanical failures, a penguin mutiny, and the discovery of a secret "EggBot" that threatens to snatch the victory from everyone.

Stranded on the Red Planet with nothing but a crate of turnips and broken ships, the rival teams must decide whether to compete for the prize or work together to find a way back to Earth.
