Today, our PhD Committee is in America’s 4th largest city – Houston, Texas. Ed, Farley and Mark explore Houston. First, Ed interviews Charlie and Sandy Brading about their long time neighbor and friend, Neil Armstrong. Then Ed interviews Jack Moore from Space Center Houston about this 1,000 acre complex that hosts Mission Control. Ed then interviews long time Astros fan, Bill Gilbert and learns a thing or two about MLB’s salary arbitration process. Our PhD Committee then wraps up the show as they leave the former Republic of Texas and cross the border – to Canada. Toronto here we come!

It took the efforts of 400,000 people plus two to put a man on the moon. This week is Astros‘ week and how can any baseball fan forget that Mission Control is in Houston? The below video was shot almost seven years before America landed on the moon.
During our podcast featuring the Houston Astros, Ed Kasputis will be interviewing Jack Moore from Space Center Houston. Ed will also interview Charlie and Sandy Brading from Wapakoneta, Ohio. The Bradings have known Neil Armstrong for over 60 years.
Our Astros’ podcast will be released on Friday, August 6, 2010.
