Episode 251 - Chakotay

IMG_2780.jpeg

Yes, I know I harp on the weather in these things. I guess it is because our summers are so short and our winters long and at times REALLY COLD. It’s so cold the my colleague Jenn and I, who I’m doing a field research project with, told our student assistants not to observe the birds until Tuesday. As I told them ‘we aren’t paying you enough fo you to die.

We went pretty late today. Isabelle had a really big day yesterday (which you hear about a bit), and we had nothing big on this afternoon, so we went later, and Jon came along. He hadn’t seen the renovations to the grocery store, so he got to see them.

I’m no fan of Voyager, though, it has its decent episodes. It’s more the characters being inconsistent for me, especially Janeway. Also, what nation did Chakotay belong to?

True Detective is back as is ST:Discovery.


Episode 250 - Frozen Area

For the first time ever, I’ve come up with a title before we record. We all just got up, and I started to do my regular routine of checking stuff, including the weather. It’s -24 C our. That, for those of you scoring at home, has a technical name. Fucking Cold.

Isabelle’s project with Jon’s high school starts next week, exciting stuff.

Backpack studio crashed, but, I had a backup recorder because I’m me. So half is on a Zoom H2.

People were standing around in the grocery store in the way, it was really annoying.

We made a bunch of stops today for your listening pleasure.

We’ve done 250 of these (and 118 of the hold show). Thanks to everyone for listening!



Episode 249 - This Store Is A Nuclear Furnace

Pretty grey out today. Not too cold.

In fact, even though I wore a short sleeved shirt in the store (under my coat) I was still all sweaty from the roller boogie. The store is warm.

Isabelle is buying lots of supplies for her upcoming art project with the kids at Jon’s high school.

Backpack studio is working well.

The liquor store was empty, eerily so.

Jon saw someone get arrested yesterday, kinda freaked him out.

Jon got new fish today too, which is good.
