Yours don't make sense at all, though.

As far as I know, we're picking up where we left off last week, yes.

We're also releasing a bonus episode, discussing the Doctor Who Series 7 finale, which we recorded hours after it aired.

He does, I do, and Owen does.

We usually go on at 9pm UTC. This because there's a lot of European folks, and some of those UTC+1 or even +2. This means that, on my part, I start at around 10pm(sometimes later), and after the obligatory greetings, it's about 10:45pm, my time when we actually get around to recording. Recording takes an hour or two, and then it's past midnight.

Setting it earlier also spawns a few problems. Some of us have children, and this would be directly in conflict with their bedtime.

Now, while we'd love to meet everyone's needs and preference at all times, the planet has a 24h difference. Hawaii, for instance, is 12 hours after Norway. There might not be any Hawaiians on this shindig as of yet, but I suspect you get the idea.

We're also looking into recording at different times, but the problem we've been facing every week, is that 10 people say they can make it, and 2 hours before recording time, 8 of them back out. That leaves two people, which is a fairly weak number. So we scramble and get a few more sitters at the proverbial table, and then once we're about ready to record, more people say they're able to participate after all, leaving us in a pickle. We either make due with 8 people, which is incredibly difficult to pull off the way we're doing things, or we're forced to split the recordings in two sessions, and split people into groups they fit the best in.


But hey, as far as podcasts go, we're young. We've barely made it out of the cradle, and are taking baby steps along the route to make it a versatile and including podcast to fit everyone here, and elsewhere. Bear with us in this startup phase, and I promise we'll get to all of you, and include you in the episodes you want to be in. If you really want in, and can't make it at the scheduled time, we'll do our best to reschedule that episode to a more fitting time.

Sound good? smile

I enjoyed it through and through. All the small bits with the SPOILERS were great. A great setup to the 50th.

Aye. Volume on your end was a bit on the dodgy side. Next time just turn it up, and if there's an echo, we'll let you know instead. Besides, Hangout tries its best to cancel out echoes and external noise.

That'll sort itself out, Jimmy. As I told you last night, when there's 4-5 people trying to talk, you'll either have dead silence or guys talking in each other's mouths. We don't know each other that well, and especially when we bring new blood around we'll have these issues. But once we're all comfortable around each other, I think they'll just fade away.

Just listen to FiyH's first couple of episodes, and then listen to the latest ones.

Last time we had a confirmed number of 3 people 2 hours before recording, and when we were about to start, we were 7. We split it to two sessions because of this. Not being in the same room means we talk in each others mouths a lot, and if there's more than 5, it gets very difficult to sort this out. I recommend you either split the teams up in several sessions, or make 100% sure you can make it. It is, after all, in 12 hours.

Who the heck is apchrist? And why haven't I been mentioned!?


Seriously, though, great post. It pretty much nails down my feelings for DIF as well. Call it FIYH all you want, guys, try pronouncing it. I'm even a father of two boys, which made me relate even more to you. I'm glad to have you on board, and if you feel you need more friends in your head, this very message board even spawned a spinoff podcast called "Extended Edition". Now that's love right there!

Well, then, I'll have to sit out on all of these, sans the 2009 film. I haven't watched a single one.

Is this set before or after Avengers, though?

Well, he could get better at not telling them where they're going.

It can be anything, really. We're not stuck to discussing movies. Games, TV-shows, gadgets and tech, or even superheroes. Which we kinda already did.

Yes, well, Gaiman doesn't seem to be able to relate to children very well, and wrote them like basic 6-year olds.

"Nightmare in Silver" was pretty damn good. Also, written by Neil Gaiman.

My fiancee and I have a pact to watch all our DVD's we either don't remember anything about, or haven't seen.

This week was "Ballistic".

I don't wanna talk about it.

We haven't discussed it yet, no. We're open for suggestion.

You're paying roughly $600 per year, yes.

But then look at what you're getting:
After Effects ($999-ish)
Premiere -  ($999-ish)
Photoshop - ($999-ish)
Illustrator - ($999-ish)
InDesign - ($999-ish)
Lightroom - ($499-ish)
SpeedGrade - ($999-ish)
Audition - ($499-ish)
Encore - ($999-ish)
Dreamweaver - ($999-ish)

..and some more, albeit vague apps you probably don't ever use anyway(kinda like InDesign for the most of us. I use it a fair bit, but most of us don't)

(prices are in "ish", because I can't find the single app prices on the web anymore, but you get my point)

It IS a fair price. Sure, it's a monthly payment, but in my eyes, that beats the hell out of paying for the apps I normally use in one go, (Photoshop, After Effects, Premiere, Illustrator, InDesign, Lightroom, SpeedGrade and Audition)As well as getting the latest versions available in for the same price when they're released.
