Thanks for checking out What a Weird Week, a podcast with Ten Weird Things from this week's news. We took last week off because it seemed like a bad thing to do a show about dumb stuff in the news when there was a war breaking out in Ukraine. Serious news is not what I do on this podcast... but I will link to the BBC podcast about the war in Ukraine - if you want to understand what's happening there, it is a good way to get informed. It's called Ukrainecast (https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0bqztzm) 

Alright. Here we go with ep 3.23... Pokemon Cards, and mystery rockets...for Full Show Notes and Podcast Links see (www.Shownotes.page).

7 That Mystery Rocket crashed into the moon on Friday...

but we won't know much for awhile because it's hard to get data from the far side of the moon... (also, that's where all the secret moonbases are, right?)

Most reports say it was a Chinese Lunar Mission rocket from years ago... except the Chinese government who I believe are still denying it was theirs...
