I have to run. "The Jon Campio" show?

Hope to see you Saturday!

The John Campea show is a Youtube show that talks about movies and TV and sometimes they have Robert M Brunette as a co-host and sometimes they have Erin Cummings as the co-host who is listed as playing Prostitute #1 in Carpenter Street, the one that didn't get in the car.

Come join us tonight folks as we discuss episode 8 of Discovery Season 3 and Star Trek in general. Everyone is nice and friendly, even if you don't want to chat and just listen you are more then welcome.

Time:
4 PM PT / 7 PM EST / Midnight (00:00) GMT / 1 AM (01:00) AM CET / 4 AM (04:00) GST / 08:00 TST / 11 AM AST
 
@Lord Garth just checking you are on an away mission today so won't be able to host?

Want to do some testing today to see if we can come up with a solution that doesn't require disconnections? While it's probably to late to use it for tonight, it'll at least be ready for Thursday.
 
I'm shooting today. It might not last until 7:00 but it depends upon how things go. If it looks like it'll go longer than I thought, I'll pop in here by 6:00 to give an update.

I just signed up for a Webex account, up to 100 users and unlimited length, let me know if you are around today, I do need to pop for a while but I am sure we can arrange a quick test.

Edit: Looks like I am wrong, they seemed to have changed it from unlimited to 50 minutes

Edit: I have Microsoft Teams, they do have a 60 minute limit but have a disclaimer that says until further notice due to Covid it is unlimited.

Filming's been cancelled for today. A combination of Covid and weather concerns. At the end of the day, I'd rather postpone a shoot than have someone feel at risk. So I'll be hosting the Zoom Session tonight.
 
Interesting Zoom Session that was. But it's the last one I'll be hosting. I disagree with someone to quite an extent about Discovery (to put it mildly), I finally got frustrated to the point where I spoke up about the extent to which I disagreed, and it got heated. I don't think the host of the Zoom Sessions should be someone who gets into heated arguments. It should be someone who's more even-tempered. But the reality is that I'm a definitive Discovery partisan.

DSC is my favorite Star Trek series. To the point where it eclipsed TOS for me. And I don't shy away from saying that. But that also doesn't mean I'm a JJ Fan. I'm not. I'm lukewarm on the JJ Films. Discovery, on the other hand, has connected with me in a way that none of the other Star Trek series ever have.

The fact that I'm posting about it here means that, yes, it bothered me that much.

I missed the fight, but I have a feeling that the next 2 episodes will be quite worthy of discussions ;)
 
It wasn't really a fight, just some strong disagreements and opinions that got very heated. We are all going a bit stir crazy at the moment and it's easy to fly off the handle at little things. Both sides made interesting points, and most crucially neither side is wrong or right it's just a matter of personal opinion.
 
Except for me. I was right, if only by virtue of me not saying anything and cowering in the corner. The best kind of correct. The cowardly kind.

More seriously. I look forward to our next meetings. What is said is in good faith and the passion displayed is a good thing in my view. There’s nothing more Trekkie than getting heated over Trek.
