Holy shit, I got it done! Barring unforeseen mishap, tomorrow will be a NORMAL #BabcomPodacst, not that I don't appreciate filling in #TheUnCommonwealth. Two notes:

1) Audio is a little sketchy, particularly on my vocals

2) Subject matter is rough on this one. Listener discretion advised

Babcom Pod @babcompod.bsky.social · Sep 30

Did Chris still not finish the long B5 ep? Do chanting kids automatically equal cult? Does a full #Riker equal dick? Why is everyone looking at #Trance like that? Does #Dylan have a God complex? #TheUnCommonwealth! An #Andromeda pod from the hosts of the #BabcomPod

I'm getting ready to hit the button on this, but remember, today, we've got something SPECIAL for you! Presenting #TheUnCommonweathPodcast! Where we hilariously take the piss out of Gene Roddenberry's #Andromeda (a special episode of the #BabcomPodcast is took too long to edit. This was closer lol)

Babcom Pod @babcompod.bsky.social · Sep 19

Some news from the pod, Chris speaking:

Bad news: the next ep is a pain in the ass (for good and bad reasons) and there's no way I get it done for Monday.

Good news: The first episode of The UnCommonwealth--our #Andromeda side project--I *can* get done for Monday
