Now, I know AI can’t produce a positive image even when it’s trying to, but it may have a future in congress: At least something would know what’s in the bill.

Howdy Bill, thanks for fessing up to the less-than-optimal results experienced on that Backstage episode. No, I really don’t like this version any better, other than it is obviously greatly shortened, so that does help. I will stick with my original post on the Backstage show and ask that you please don’t do this again. I feel that it minimizes the seriousness of much of your content. That said, please do realize that I am only one member of a host of members, and others obviously did like it, so perhaps it is just me that has a problem with it. Also PLEASE do realize that I don’t fault you for trying something different from time to time, so long as you consider the consequences of those experiments as revealed by the feedback. One other point to ponder … perhaps having your lovely wife sit in when you are short a member would be a far better alternative, as she can most certainly provide unique perspectives on a range of topics, that we may not normally encounter, much like Zo does when he sits in … just a thought!?!?

Now with 87% LESS SUCK than the Backstage episode. This is more or less what I had in mind before trying to unsuccessfully fill over an hour of Backstage run time. I’d love to hear if it changed any minds.

Yeah, I just caught it on Rumble. Much, much better. It was only the Gorn audio overlapping you guy’s comments, that didn’t work.

Here’s the deal. You tried. You learned. It’s a data point, a building block, a foundation of what to do or what to change. “Sometimes we win, sometimes we learn”. Gorn dialog during the selfiies was funny. I’d suffer through another if I saw some technical improvements. It’s the live aspect that adds the difficulty. Keep trying.

Much, much better. The Gorn Captain’s sense of humor hasn’t improved much but the production quality is far better than the Backstage Episode.

I hear Gorn taste like a cross between shrimp and fish so I’m not sure if they’re best served with tartar sauce or shrimp sauce. I suppose the safest move would be to have both on the table when serving Gorn.

Oh, yeah, almost forgot, the little ones are much more tender. Best to eat them while they’re still squeaking and wriggling.

You serve Gorn with remoulade, like with ‘gator. The cayenne brings out the subtle nuances that exist in the flesh, if not the personality!

I first ate Gorn gator in Houston in ’96, at Pappadeaux. It’s a Cajun restaurant, part of a Texas chain owned by the Pappas family. They do BBQ (Pappas BBQ), Mexican (Pappasito’s), and fine dining (Pappas Brother’s Steakhouse) as well.
Highly recommended! Excellent food, great atmosphere.

Used to go to Houston several times a year on business. Have eaten at all three varieties. Concur with your recommendation of the restaurants, if not the gator. Co-worker had it and I tried it, was not to my liking.

That works out just fine. You eat the mud bugs and I’ll take the Oysters and Dixie Beer!

Nah, crawdads are arthropods, phylum arthropoda. Gorn are reptiles, phylum chordata. If you pick one that hasn’t eaten exclusively fish, or people, the flavor shouldn’t be overly objectionable. This is another argument for getting the young ones. Before they’ve acquired a taint from their diet. But then I’ll eat pretty much anything that doesn’t eat me first.

I like shark, fresh caught served piping hot with horseradish and lemon juice so …

It’s a wonderful thing, being at the top of the food chain and THE apex predator of an entire universe as far as we know so far. One of the marvelous things about being a human is the ridiculously broad range of fuel we’re capable of operating on.

I’m not a picky eater. Something that thinks it’s going to eat me would be right up at the top of my list of foods to try. The biter bitten and all that.

Nice editing Bill! It’s almost like you’d done that type of thing before. 😉
