I think we should do a bit of a test and talk about ourselves and how we got into DiF and what not before going on to Doctor Who or one of the other topics. so we can test the technical set up and format.

and yes that is 2pm PST.

So is that Owen, Fireproof, Dave and myself who can make the recording?

I'll post a Googlehangout link here closer to the time and anyone else who wants to can join can

Ok since later works for Tom and the east coasters how does 10pm work?

That's 5pm on the East coast and 11pm Tomahawk Time?

Old Man and the Sea didn't do anything for me and I know what you mean about nothing really happening in 'Sun' but I found the narrators character engaging enough not to find it a problem, You milage may vary

I've just finished The Sun Also Rises by Earnest Hemingway. It's very character based without much actual plot similar to films in the style of American Graffiti that leave me going "I liked that but I don't know why..."

It follows the character of Jake Barnes, an american journalist living in Paris in the mid 1920's and his relationship with Lady Brett Ashley a promiscuous english lady whose feelings for him are genuine knows they can not be happy together because of a vaguely described war injury means he can't have sex.

The book seems to follow a pattern of them going out and having a big meal then getting terrible drunk.

Hemingway writes about nothing in particular in great detail with as few words as possible in such a way as to be far more readable then it deserves to be and the characters subtly as the story moves to spain for the running of the bulls.

As the book was written in the twenties there were a few times where I tried to figure out a turn of phrase but not nearly as much as you'd expect in fact in a lot of ways it all feels rather modern.

I am rather curious about the movie that was made in the fifties as i'm not sure how the small amount of plot would lend itself to screen.

how is everyone's availability? We're looking to record something next Wednesday (24th)

The plan is to start with half hour episodes and record two at a time so half an hour talking about Doctor Who for example then another half hour on the next topic.

Also feel free to post topics you'd like to talk about I'm currently thinking something like:

• Doctor Who

• Game of Thrones

• Summer Movies we're looking forward too

• Comics we're reading

What do you all think?

BDA Brita'd it 

I'm glad your ok Alex. Really horrible scenes there yesterday 

The "Lying" pic is a cat from the comic, Saga who can tell when people lie, It was my way of saying that I was bullshitting, no one would call him Tree Stokes

Thanks Teague, but if my lyrics were so  bad then a talented musician wouldn't drop everything to record them  !

btw Front Row is a movie and culture review show here in the UK on radio 4 

Take my name
