This is a bitter sweet episode. On one hand, it marks the one year anniversary of Smoking and Drinking in Space! On the other, I say goodbye to my dearest friend and co-host. I hope you will join me and many others as we reflect back on our favorite Red moments in the show and celebrate his invaluable contribution to Smoking and Drinking in Space!
