Who hasn't heard of Peter the Greatest! Oh, you're from the 21st century, you say? Well, then take a seat, and listen as we tell you the story of 23rd century's last dictator. It's quite an exciting story! It has lemonade swimming pools, applause days, officially regulated anarchy, and quirky little wooden souvenirs. Get ready for a journey through one of history's most peculiar forms of government!

We hereby declare the Pirate Games to have officially begun! Slightly similar to the Olympic Games, the Pirate Games bring together the best athletes and artists in the solar system. They show us how good they are at things like Crow's Nesting, Cannonball Putting and - obviously - Making Lemonade. We comment on the opening ceremony, mention some of our favourite games, and enjoy some word play in between. Sponsor-Ship, anyone?

There may be other means to travel to space, but none of them are as tasty as the Jellypult. And as a bonus, the people who came up with the idea were just two simple guys, like us! Today we give you all the ins and some of the outs on the newest iteration of the Space Catapult. To complicate things a little, Dirk brought along a grumpy guest, who doesn't actually speak, but has a way of making its presence known.

Lori Keet is a bit of a celebrity. And a robot. And a Star Catcher. And she bought QuickQuack. And she saved the rainforests. Okay, that last part was a bit exaggerated, but either way, we have a lot to talk about today. And we also briefly look back at our (after) party and answer a listener question about making money too. Will we manage to release such a busy episode on time, you're thinking? Well… It'll be ready when it's ready.

We probably could have seen it coming, but our 200th episode is suddenly upon us! We organised a genuine party to celebrate, but we still need to come up with something to talk about in the episode itself. How about we just start recording and see what happens? We don't remember any of Mr. Dobalina's suggestions though, and we keep getting distracted by the actual party… Who just bumped into the gravity switch?

No, we didn't resurrect someone. No, we didn't wake someone from hibernation. And no, we didn't talk to someone through some kind of interdimensional rift. This time we genuinely spoke with someone from the 21st century! Not on purpose, obviously, but we immediately saw the opportunity to hear the first impressions of someone fresh to 2225. And we revel, at least a tiny bit, in being right about this whole time travel business (#bonuspoints). Also, when we say 'we', 'we' mean just Simon - or, as our guest calls him; Future Boy.

With Dirk on holiday, Simon decides to visit the 21st century once again. Using a smart trick, he manages to avoid being stuck in a small rural village, and gets to experience 21st century Frankfurt first hand. And, through a trick of fate, he actually bumps into the one person we know in that century. Who is that? Hint; she doesn't believe in any of this!

A premiere for the show; for the very first time we record the podcast in the 21st century! Yes, we've done it! Although the 'rules' are pretty challenging, we wanted to give it a shot anyway. Get ready to find out everything about a small rural village in 21st century Germany at night time. Think closed bakeries, closed flower shops and closed kiosks. Luckily we meet somebody at the train station who speaks English! We wonder if they finally believed that we were from the future after we suddenly disappeared…

Are we for real? Did Simon actually do some time traveling? Let's find out by asking him tons of questions! Where to? When to? And how did he get the sun glasses? We'll find out how he has been getting around (or not), how he has been buying things (or not) and who he has been talking to (or not). And, we end with a time travelling joke!

Just because we have world peace, it doesn't mean we can't have superheroes! In today's episode we discuss one of them; Moustarrow. Or as they used to be called when they weren't so famous yet; Schnurrpfeil. We actually got to talk to them in person, so we have all kinds of information that even most 23rd century people don't know. And talking about information that some people don't know; at the end of the episode, Simon reveals a tiny little detail about his own life that even Dirk didn't know! And by tiny we mean huge…

It's Solstice time! Or at least it was a few days ago and that means we get to talk about all the presents we got! One of our presents involved dirt and one involved uranium. Guess which one we talk about more! Hint; it radiates light and warmth and is not dangerous at all. It does have a few weird side effects though, so the end of the episode is a little unusual.

You've heard a lot about the 23rd century already, and you sure know your way around the 21st. But how about the 22nd century? You know, that century where alchemy was still a thing? Well, we found a book from that time, about that topic, and we try it out straight away! Who needs plastic forks anyway? Also, why is Simon late again?

Is it a clone? No! Is it a doppelgänger? No! It is MMAcevedo, the world's first snapshot of a human brain. Almost two centuries old, it's been used so often that there must be hundreds of thousands of Miguels - as they are commonly known - by now. How this came to be, and what that means for us, we'll discuss in this episode. That and cheetahs.

Since starting the show over three years ago, some of the devices we discussed in earlier episodes have changed quite a bit. The future isn't static, you know! With Solstice coming up, almost every device received an upgrade, and we'll bring you up to date on all of them. Think food conglomerators that can now make food that is safe for aliens, and submarines with creative naming schemes. It's upgrade season!

Hello, dear 23rd century listeners! Here's your weekly podcast from the 21st century. This week we'll tell you all about how our day was. Spoiler; it involved Facebook, the Apple Store and Game of Thrones. And then we answer all your questions about 21st century food. Yes, a steak is made of a real dead animal. But no, a shepherd's pie doesn't have any real shepherd in it. Also, we explain when 21st century people manage to have a little fun. See you in 200 years!

Nature doesn't traditionally speak for itself, so who takes its side when big decisions are made? Well… the future also found a solution for that! Say hello to the Voice of Nature. Every company and organisation has one and they have real power, not like those ethics councils! This episode isn't just about the VONs though. During the recording, we actually have somebody giving us podcasting tips and we feel all professional about it.

66G rolled out not too long ago, and with it came many new possibilities. One of the most interesting ones is the possibility to talk directly to the afterlife. How did we handle things before? You'll find out during this episode. What are some of the remaining challenges? You'll also find that out. What did we learn about the afterlife so far? You'll kind of find out. And how does it work exactly? Well… we sort of skip over that. On the other hand, there's a robot joke at the end!

Do you know those apartments that are really high up in a tree? Where waterfalls flow down and drones fly up? Where there are not just bathrobes in the closets, but also squirrel suits?

And there we were, thinking that our alien friends, the Luminati, were sooo perfect. As it turns out, they have been stealing our salt water all this time! As a souvenir, no less! Apparently having a planet full of salty water is pretty rare, galactically speaking. How did it get that far? How did they even do it? And has it really been three years since our first episode reached the 21st century? You'll learn all those things in this episode.

We visited a pretty rare location; a place where archeologists have unearthed a 21st century neighbourhood, where there's a museum that displays typical artifacts from the time. Sometimes there were information labels and sometimes we guessed what was going on. Did those chicken bones in the rubbish bin really mean 21st century people ate actual chickens? How did they keep their precious asphalt from deteriorating? And what was up with all those bottle caps?
