Avant Fart
A podcast for Tooterheads from Tooterville.
This podcast is a guided exploration of big ideas, told one subject at a time. Each season takes on a single theme and examines it from many angles—slowly, thoughtfully, and with a sense of curiosity that values understanding over expertise. Episodes are designed to be approachable and engaging, whether you’re deeply familiar with the topic or encountering it for the first time. The goal isn’t to overwhelm, but to invite listeners into a shared process of discovery.

Ganymede is the largest moon in the solar system, even bigger than Mercury. In this episode, we explore its magnetic field, icy crust, and possible underground ocean. We talk about how moons can behave like planets in their own right. Ganymede challenges our definitions and expectations. It’s proof that size isn’t everything—but it helps.
