Luca: we pretty much agree on every aspect with you.

But also, it's kind of obvious that the only reason Hurt's in there as the 9th incarnation, is because Eccleston didn't want to come back. Things were rewritten, and we now have an incarnation that is the Doctor in mind, but not in namesake.

Great to have you back, guys!

Also, it appeared on iTunes on the old stream, so that's good.

We're recording in about 3 hours, discussing Magic Lantern(custom Canon EOS firmware) and we've an open spot if anyone wants to contribute

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.

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?

Yeah, that's 4am on my part. 3am on Owen's part.

Emo.

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.

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!

Sure is!

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