I’m with you. I just turned on the coverage and saw who is hosting and promptly turned it off.

I am watching the live stream now, and it is irritating. It sounds completely unprofessional.
Fortunately, if Colbert is involved, I have neither seen nor heard him.

This is not what is keeping children in Africa from being fed. Starvation and poor health are a real problem, and one that people should care more about, but the Africa problem is not a matter of luck of funds.

Wait, didn’t we did this in 1961?

Okay, just saw Colbert. I may watch just a few more minutes, but if I have to see his repulsive persona once more, that is it for me.

Yep. It’s a mistake for Virgin Galactic to pick that jerk. He may be popular with the leftie tech crowd, but the space exploration crowd overall leans right.

unfortunately we must remember, that we are not Branson’s target audience. If he gets a half dozen young science nerds interested in space, it’s all good. Branson may even be a jerk and a PIA, but so far he’s enjoying spending his money, and employing some space nerds, some of whom are few sharp looking women.
And he’s ahead of Bezos

Colbert’s hosting in and out, along with Veronica.
This is a pure LGBTQ Rainbow inclusivity thing.
Feeeeeeeeeeelings, wo wo wo feeeeeeeeeeelings....
(Wonder if Branson ever allows a virgin single close acquaintance to remain so.)

“And he’s ahead of Bezos.”
Maybe for lifting a handful of the mega-rich into space each shot, but not for heavy payloads of hardware and large crews.

Scratch that last post, my mind thought Musk. Doh.
Yes, he’s ahead of Bezos.

I’m not pretending Branson is doing anything but securing bragging rights.
but in this race, Bezos may end up First Loser.

I just tuned in and saw that repulsive libtard Colbert on my monitor. Closed that browser window immediately. No way I can stomach seeing him despite wanting to see Branson's Virgin Galactic plane disintegrate in space ...

You are correct that Musk is a whole lot more industrious.
