Jodi, Bridget and Philip discuss the new Max Original animated series ‘Fired on Mars’ available on HBO Max. Jeff Cooper is a graphic designer for the tech giant Mars.ly, and has recently been transferred to their corporate offices on planet Mars. He awaits the day when he can finally start a new life with his partner Hannah, who is scheduled to arrive the following year. Jeff’s life is thrown into disarray when he is notified that his position has been laid off, leaving him stranded on Mars without a job and completely at the mercy of the Mars.ly facilities. Deprived of a sense of belonging, Jeff embarks on a quest to find a new purpose: hopefully one that can help him improve his self-confidence and acquire the skills necessary to fill one of the few roles available on the lonely red planet.
