Seriously hoping you are finding some Silence in your Life!
Also hoping my comments over the past few weeks are not too noisey. I appreciate this vehicle to keep us connected but also recognize you probably already have enough penpals. I score High on the Introvert scale and know something about needing some Alone, Silent Time.
Your past week’s edition inspired me to listen to the Treksperts for the first time. I thoroughly enjoyed the Deep Dives on the Dominion and then All Good Things. Trek at its best!
I’m a bit behind on Delta Flyers having only listened through Roxann/Tim. On to Ethan next.
I’m halfway through Season 2 of Foundation. I’m seeing one of these Apple+ episode a day and then the following morning listening to the companion podcast which I view as essential for explaining what’s going on!
I literally haven’t heard anything positive about the Short Treks so it’s a bridge to far for me.
I’m a Game of Thrones fan… Maybe you are, too? Cersei and then Jon Snow images in back to back editions!
I forgot to mention last week that I really liked your reference to “Comfort TV”! That’s a great term for it (Maybe Stargate SG1 qualifies). I know something about Comfort Food having spent much of my working career helping to market the Entenmanns brand (a sweet baked goods brand sold primarily in the eastern USA and unfortunately not in Toronno).
I’ll close for this week quoting one of my favorite lines from Mr Spock: “I doubt we will be bunnies!”
Hi Steven. You have a great journey ahead of you with the Inglorious Treksperts! Their not-great-sound-quality can drive me a little crazy and often interferes with me being able to listen on headphones, but their knowledge of Trek and the entertainment industry and storytelling and their connections to all the Star Trek pros make it worthwhile.
Always happy to chat this way! I was not a Game of Thrones fan for the first few seasons and then I was assigned to write a piece about Peter Dinklage for the Biography website. I viewed some clips and got hooked and then followed the show through to the end... I've probably watched it all the way through two, maybe three times.
I, too, doubt we will be bunnies. (I later found out that was a Buffy reference, but I never watched Buffy.)
Dude, I have also been lagging on podcasts. I couldn’t get through Office Ladies from two weeks ago and maybe I’m just done with them? because come on we all know the show was just not the same post Michael Scott.
I have still been enjoying the Office Ladies... they make the bad episodes better and I will always enjoy their banter. But this is such a rough era of the show.
It’s not just them, I’ve ignored even some Trekspert episodes. Meanwhile I’ve been on a Hemingway binge so if you’ll excuse me I need to volunteer for the Ukraine ambulance corps
Yeah, I've been skipping a lot of my favorites lately because they aren't holding my attention. That's when I fall back on Armchair Anonymous but I think I've heard them all now.
I have never been on a Hemingway binge, so I leave you to it.
