Something Every Tuesday: IAE
Undefined Undefined News UpdateContent
[ Music ]
Announcer: Don’t crawl into that cryopod just yet. Not when there’s Something Every Tuesday, with your host Esen Landari!
[ Applause ]
Thank you! I’m absolutely thrilled to be here with all of you. Make sure to give it up for SET’s very own talented announcer, Christine.
[ Applause ]
Christine, just to check, were you implying that people out there are debating between putting themselves in to a state of frozen stasis and watching our show?
Announcer: Yup.
Great.
[ Laughter ]
I, for one, am very excited to see what they choose. Hopefully, they stick around because we have a fantastic show coming up. One of my personal favorite comedians, Langer Lewis, will be coming by fresh from his latest tour.
Plus, cleaning expert Daryl Hissup will explain how to transform your hab from funky to fresh. Something that I’m personally dying to know. No matter how hard I try to stay organized, stuff just always starts to pile up everywhere. My place has gotten so bad that I actually had to switch from hiring cleaning crews to contracting search and rescue teams.
[ Chuckle ]
Now, normally I break down all the biggest stories of the week for you, but I’m gonna be honest, there’s only one thing that I’ve been following: this year’s IAE.
[ Cheers ]
For you planet-bound folks out there, I’m talking about the Intergalactic Aerospace Expo, where a few days from now all of the ‘verses biggest and best manufacturers will be coming together to show off their latest and greatest. It does not get better than this for a gearhead like me. Well, maybe if Consolidated Outland announced they were designing a gravlev called the Esen.
[ Laughter ]
Silas, feel free to comm my people.
[ Chuckle ]
Besides all the new ships and tech upgrades, the real excitement is that the IAE Board of Directors recently announced that there is not going to be just the one Expo on Kiel this year, but that they are adding an entirely new second location.
[ Applause ]
Of course, most of that excitement goes away as soon as you find out that the second Expo is going to be hosted on Hurston.
[ Laughter ]
Not quite sure what the Board was thinking on this one. My best guess is that they thought people would have fun if it smelled like the Expo was being held inside a fuel tank.
Okay, actually my real best guess is that Hurston Dynamics paid them a ridiculous sum for the honor. No one knows for sure, but the rumors have it well into nine digits. Apparently, the ol’ Colonel, CEO Gavin E. Hurston himself, has been growing tired of the bad rep his planet has gotten over the years. That’s why last year they built a giant new convention center just outside of Lorville. Guess how many conventions they’ve hosted since it opened? One. And that was for Hurston Dynamics annual management training.
I guess it’s hard to draw tourists when the two things your planet is known for is labor violations and toxic shock.
[ Laughter ]
Of course, having a second Expo isn’t all bad. While tickets to the main Expo on Kiel sold out weeks ago, IAE Hurston has plenty left. And according to the IAE, the Hurston Expo is going to have all the same vehicles on display. That means no matter which Expo you go to, you will still get to see in person all the Origin models that Ellroy Cass crashed this year.
[ Laughter ]
But not all ship buzz this week has been focused on the IAE. Did you hear about the capture of Kelligan’s Bazaar? One of the biggest Advocacy busts this year. A vice sting operation discovered a Kraken filled to the brim with just about every illegal contraband item you can think of, all thanks to some enterprising outlaws setting the massive ship up as a floating black market.
Shopper Impression: Excuse me, can you tell me where I can find the vials of Slam?
Store Clerk Impression: Of course, sir. Just make a right past the stolen kidneys. If you hit the cage full of crying Osoians you’ve gone too far.
[ Laughter ]
So much for Drake not making ships for criminals. CEO Anden Arden was quick to point out that just because some creative people were using the Kraken for illegal activities does not mean that Drake condones such activity. To which the entire universe responded by winking back at him.
[ Laughter ]
Okay! Our special guest Daryl Hissup will be joining us in a little bit. But first, we have a special edition of —
Announcer: The Headlines of Tomorrow!
[ Music and Applause ]
That’s right, Headlines of Tomorrow, where we give you a special preview of the biggest news stories that will be making headlines all this week.
First up, we have this headline straight from the IAE.
Anvil premieres their new ship: the Arrow. Vanduul respond by making their ships even pointier.
[ Laughter ]
Next up is a touching headline for the upcoming holiday on December 3rd.
UEE holds an Empire wide moment of silence to honor Anthony Tanaka Remembrance Day. Most people use that moment to think, ‘Who is Anthony Tanaka again?’
[ Sparse Chuckles ]
Okay, guess I need to wait a few more decades before making Tanaka Jokes. Our last Headline of Tomorrow is also from this week’s Expo.
Drake Interplanetary introduces a new Kraken variant called the Murderer. Claims it’s designed to help teach children how to read.
[ Laughter ]
All right, we have to take a quick break, but when we come back, cleaning tips with Daryl Hissup and comedian Langer Lewis, right after this.

Ansager: Kriech noch nicht in den Kryopod hinein. Nicht, wenn es jeden Dienstag etwas gibt, mit deinem Gastgeber Esen Landari!
[ Applaus]
Ich danke dir! Ich bin absolut begeistert, mit euch allen hier zu sein. Achten Sie darauf, dass Sie es für SETs eigene talentierte Moderatorin Christine aufgeben.
[ Applaus]
Christine, nur um es zu überprüfen, hast du angedeutet, dass die Leute da draußen darüber diskutieren, ob sie sich in einen Zustand der gefrorenen Stasis versetzen und unsere Show sehen wollen?
Ansager: Jawohl.
Großartig.
[ Lachen]
Ich zum Beispiel bin sehr gespannt, was sie wählen. Hoffentlich bleiben sie in der Nähe, denn wir haben eine fantastische Show vor uns. Einer meiner persönlichen Lieblingskomiker, Langer Lewis, wird frisch von seiner letzten Tour vorbeikommen.
Außerdem erklärt Ihnen der Reinigungsexperte Daryl Hissup, wie Sie Ihre Gewohnheit von funky auf fresh umstellen können. Etwas, das ich persönlich unbedingt wissen möchte. Egal wie sehr ich versuche, organisiert zu bleiben, das Zeug fängt einfach immer an, sich überall zu sammeln. Meine Wohnung ist so schlecht geworden, dass ich eigentlich von der Einstellung von Reinigungspersonal zu beauftragten Such- und Rettungsteams wechseln musste.
[ Lacht]
Normalerweise breche ich für dich alle großen Geschichten der Woche auf, aber ich will ehrlich sein, es gibt nur eine Sache, der ich gefolgt bin: die diesjährige IAE.
[ Auf Wiedersehen]
Für euch Planeten-gebundenen Leute da draußen spreche ich von der Intergalactic Aerospace Expo, wo in ein paar Tagen alle größten und besten Hersteller der Verse zusammenkommen werden, um ihre neuesten und besten Produkte zu präsentieren. Besser geht es für ein Getriebe wie mich nicht. Nun, vielleicht, wenn Consolidated Outland bekannt gab, dass sie einen Gravitationsschacht namens Esen entwarfen.
[ Lachen]
Silas, zögere nicht, mit meinen Leuten zu sprechen.
[ Lacht]
Neben all den neuen Schiffen und technischen Upgrades ist es vor allem spannend, dass der IAE-Vorstand kürzlich angekündigt hat, dass es in diesem Jahr nicht nur die eine Expo in Kiel geben wird, sondern dass sie einen völlig neuen zweiten Standort hinzufügen.
[ Applaus]
Natürlich verschwindet das meiste von dieser Aufregung, sobald Sie herausfinden, dass die zweite Expo auf Hurston stattfinden wird.
[ Lachen]
Ich bin mir nicht ganz sicher, was der Vorstand dazu gesagt hat. Meine beste Vermutung ist, dass sie dachten, die Leute würden Spaß haben, wenn es roch, als ob die Expo in einem Kraftstofftank stattfand.
Okay, eigentlich ist meine beste Vermutung, dass Hurston Dynamics ihnen eine lächerliche Summe für die Ehre bezahlt hat. Niemand weiß es mit Sicherheit, aber die Gerüchte besagen, dass es gut neunstellig ist. Anscheinend ist der alte Oberst, CEO Gavin E. Hurston selbst, müde geworden vom schlechten Ruf, den sein Planet im Laufe der Jahre bekommen hat. Deshalb haben sie letztes Jahr ein riesiges neues Kongresszentrum außerhalb von Lorville gebaut. Rate mal, wie viele Conventions sie seit ihrer Eröffnung veranstaltet haben? Eins. Und das war für das jährliche Managementtraining von Hurston Dynamics.
Ich schätze, es ist schwer, Touristen anzuziehen, wenn die beiden Dinge, für die dein Planet bekannt ist, Arbeitsrechtsverletzungen und toxischer Schock sind.
[ Lachen]
Natürlich ist es nicht nur schlecht, eine zweite Expo zu haben. Während die Tickets für die Expo in Kiel vor Wochen ausverkauft waren, hat die IAE Hurston noch viel zu bieten. Und laut IAE wird die Hurston Expo alle gleichen Fahrzeuge zeigen. Das bedeutet, egal auf welche Expo Sie gehen, Sie werden immer noch alle Origin-Modelle persönlich zu sehen bekommen, die Ellroy Cass in diesem Jahr abgestürzt ist.
[ Lachen]
Aber nicht alle Schiffssurfer dieser Woche haben sich auf die IAE konzentriert. Hast du von der Gefangennahme von Kelligans Basar gehört? Eine der größten Advocacy-Büsten dieses Jahr. Eine Sitte entdeckte einen Kraken, der bis zum Rand mit fast jedem erdenklichen illegalen Schmuggelartikel gefüllt war, dank einiger unternehmungslustiger Gesetzloser, die das massive Schiff als schwimmenden Schwarzmarkt aufstellten.
Eindruck des Käufers: Entschuldigung, können Sie mir sagen, wo ich die Ampullen von Slam finden kann?
Eindruck vom Verkäufer im Laden: Natürlich, Sir. Bieg einfach rechts an den gestohlenen Nieren vorbei. Wenn du den Käfig voller weinender Osoianer triffst, bist du zu weit gegangen.
[ Lachen]
So viel zu Drake, der keine Schiffe für Kriminelle baut. CEO Anden Arden wies schnell darauf hin, dass nur weil einige kreative Menschen den Kraken für illegale Aktivitäten nutzten, das nicht bedeutet, dass Drake solche Aktivitäten billigt. Darauf reagierte das gesamte Universum mit einem Augenzwinkern auf ihn.
[ Lachen]
Okay! Unser spezieller Gast Daryl Hissup wird uns in Kürze begleiten. Aber zuerst haben wir eine Sonderausgabe von -
Ansager: Die Schlagzeilen von morgen!
[ Musik und Applaus []
Das ist richtig, Headlines of Tomorrow, wo wir Ihnen eine spezielle Vorschau auf die größten Nachrichten geben, die diese Woche für Schlagzeilen sorgen werden.
Zunächst einmal haben wir diese Schlagzeile direkt von der IAE.
Anvil stellt ihr neues Schiff vor: die Arrow. Vanduul reagiert, indem er seine Schiffe noch pointierter macht.
[ Lachen]
Als nächstes folgt eine anrührende Schlagzeile für den kommenden Feiertag am 3. Dezember.
Die UEE hält eine große Schweigeminute zu Ehren des Anthony Tanaka Gedenktages ab. Die meisten Leute nutzen diesen Moment, um zu denken: "Wer ist Anthony Tanaka wieder?
[ Sparse lacht]
Okay, ich schätze, ich muss noch ein paar Jahrzehnte warten, bevor ich Tanaka-Witze mache. Unsere letzte Schlagzeile von morgen ist auch von der Expo in dieser Woche.
Drake Interplanetary stellt eine neue Kraken-Variante namens Mörder vor. Behauptet, dass es dazu dienen soll, Kindern das Lesen beizubringen.
[ Lachen]
In Ordnung, wir müssen eine kurze Pause einlegen, aber wenn wir zurückkommen, Reinigungstipps mit Daryl Hissup und Komiker Langer Lewis, gleich danach.
