The D-Con Chamber podcast with Dominic & Connor

LOL I find the criticisms of Dominic ridiculous. The chemistry and personalities of him and Connor make the show what it is. Most of the people they have interviewed have been on other podcasts. Listen to those instead. I am a big fan of Connor too but overall Dominic does much more preparation on their guests. Also clearly both have gained greater understanding and appreciation of the franchise as whole doing these shows . It clear that Dom has greater enthusiasm. Also it’s worth remembering Dom walked away from their first podcast because of the producer’s problem months before Connor did.

Did not set out to sound like I favor Dom over Connor. Not true. Just that Dom needed defending. Both together is what makes podcast special. If you do not see that there are many alternatives.
 
Two things can be a true at the same time. Yes, Dom is very enthusiastic and always interested in the guests. He also has a habit of interrupting a lot and finishing other people's sentences. If that doesn't bother you, fine. But it's a legitimate criticism. The show would be so much better for it if he just tones it down a little bit.
 
There’s also that one time on the show that he talked about eyeing up an underage actress and that other time he drew comparisons between Jonathan Frakes and infamous British paedophile Jimmy Saville.

Still, it’s all just a laugh isn’t it? I’m sure he’s a lovely fella…
 
I watched the show with Jeffrey Combs.
Dominic is quieter. He still interrupts others, more than he should. Let them talk, Dom!
I was pleased to see Connor speak up more.
And Combs is a hoot.
 
Yes it was nice to see Jeffrey combs again. At least Dominic wasn't constantly interrupting like he'd done i previous shows.
 
Dominic Keating is a dick, but the contrast in personalities between the two hosts is a feature not a flaw. Similar to Garret Wang and Bob McNeil's podcast, appropriately Wang is the dick on that show.

Having a dick on the show means questions will be asked that a polite host would be too nice to ask.
 
They seem to have skipped "Shuttlepod One" in the episode re-watches. Whether it's just seen as redundant to cover it again in this iteration.
 
I believe they said they were planning something special for the "Shuttlepod One" re-watch and so they were skipping it for now...
 
Ok file this under I never expected this -
This Sunday is the Shuttlepod One episode. With Rick Berman and Brannon Braga together in studio! Sure they interviewed them separately on previous podcast but felt like a one thing. Both together is a whole different thing. Have they ever been interviewed about anything together?

Not recently. I believe there is an interview, where they talk about the boy band incident.
