Podcast 131: Broken Bow Movements


This podcast takes on a whole new enterprise. Just a little heads up about what happened behind the scenes. We spent an hour trying to get Justin.tv to work (the problem was probably site maintenance) and finally switched over to Google Hangouts. The result was relatively successful. We'll obviously be working out a few kinks on this if it's an additional enterprise we'll need to take on. Possibly as a result of technical chat troubles, this is our shortest 'cast in several years. Looks like you get a small break from listening.

But anyway, here's Enterprise! Is it as we feared and a bigger burden than Voyager? Well, it turns out the ship has a giant grapple, so it can't be that bad. Our biggest regret, though, is not realizing that the Vulcan ambassador is the main guy in Robot Jox.

Btw, it looks like one of the audio edits slipped into the past about five seconds during the viewer mail portion at about 38:10. The result is a little bit of overlapping audio (Jon sounds like he stepped into Night Lizard Future Emperor's time room for a moment) followed by five seconds of silence. Please don't use that as an excuse for a bad iTunes review!
