Hey everyone! Alex here filling in for Vinny to get everyone up to speed on what they can expect for this week of slightly reduced capacity. As you probably already know Vinny is on vacation this week, but Brad and I are holding down the fort and producing as much as we feasibly can with two able bodies.

The one thing I'd like to note up top here is that there's a small chance Tuesday's stream either won't happen or will have to be rescheduled. The good news is that since that stream is just going to be me, I have some flexibility. As it turns out my car--I'm sure you've heard me tell some tales of what's been ailing it of late--is still not fixed, so I may have to trudge to a better and more distant garage that knows what it's doing. So consider Tuesday in flux, but everything else should be more or less locked in. Here's what we've got coming up.

The Nextlander WatchcastThis will be our last Watchcast before we take a one week break, and unfortunately, these aren't the most thrilling episodes to pause on. But we have hit the halfway point of Star Trek's final season, and while Wink of an Eye and The Empath aren't exactly series (or season) highlights, at least we get to watch some guest actors ham it up to the nth degree.Latest episodes post one week early on Patreon and RSS for Core Crew Patron Tiers and above
