Since we always talk about Star Trek anyways, here it is!  Our first test run of a new potential show to be called Phaser Time!  

Backstory : We were planning to do an Avengers Infinty War commentary but rather then do a 2 hour 30 minute movie in it's entirety for our first attempt, it just made more sense to do a 22 minute cartoon instead just to work out the kinks.  Well, consider the kinks worked out!  

This episode is good to go, just lacking music!  Feel free to pull up Star Trek Animated Series episode 5, "More Tribbles More Troubles" and pause the timecode at 0:03 and wait for the cue.

Avengers Infinity War commentary is in the can and should follow on this feed a day or two later.

Finally, apologies for the lack of new shows.  We've had technical problems in the form of one of our hosts lacking a working computer.  Smartphones can do many things but they cannot record and edit podcasts.  At least not yet.  Certainly not when using airport wifi connections.
