This week on Pop Culture Garbage Barge, Darwin and Cat salute the risk-takers who moved humanity forward. They also examine a very different kind of risk: the incredibly questionable decisions they made growing up completely unsupervised.
From early explorers to space-age brilliance, history is built on bold moves that probably shouldn’t have worked. Meanwhile, back on Earth, two middle schoolers are sneaking out at 2am to meet someone with a nickname that should have been a huge red flag.

Somewhere between groundbreaking achievement and absolute chaos lies the question: How are we still alive?
Welcome aboard the Garbage Barge
