EXCLUSIVE: Jack Black’s Mother Helped Get Apollo 13 Astronauts Home (w/ Astronaut Victor Glover, Jack Black, Neil Siegel)

Periodic Talks - A podcast by Gillian Jacobs & Diona Reasonover

Astronaut Victor Glover joins us after an extended stay on the International Space Station. He gets personal, sharing his launch day music playlist and what it's like being a dad in space. Then, actor Jack Black and his brother Neil Siegel do their first joint interview. In a one-of-a-kind conversation, they reminisce about the life and career of their late mother, aerospace engineer Judith Love Cohen. We hear unbelievable stories, like the day Judith left for work, went into labor, delivered Jack and still finished the problem she was working on. And yep, she also worked on a system that helped get Apollo 13 astronauts home.
