Chief Adam arrest

Not knowing the events leading up to the RCMP stopping them from leaving, if you have an expired license plate just accept the ticket. Fight the ticket in court if need be but never get confrontational with the police. Had Chief Adam not got confrontational the way he did I really don’t think things would have transpired the way they did. That being said I don’t think tackling and punching Chief Adam was necessary, especially considering how many officers showed up within minutes. Both sides should have done better. 

‘For All Mankind’ Review

I was a huge fan of Star Trek: The Next Generation and the 2004 Battlestar Galactica series, so when I learned that Ronald Moore was working on a series called ‘For All Mankind’ I figured I’d check it out. The series is an Apple Original which requires a $5.99/month subscription but I figured why not? So I subscribed and binged all 10 episodes.

Ronald Moore was a writer/producer for Star Trek TNG and DS9 as well as creator of the 2004 reimagined Battlestar Galactica. He’s a creator I’ve come to trust and respect; and I was not disappointed in his latest endeavour. 

‘For All Mankind’ tells the story of an alternate version of the space race where the USSR landed on the moon before the USA in 1969. From there history on the show diverges from our own and we follow the trials and tribulations of the NASA astronauts and their families. The show does start out a bit slow but as the season progresses it gets better and better. The acting is stellar and I was extremely happy to learn the show has been renewed for a second season. 

If you are interested in NASA and like a good period show you will like this. The drama is excellent and the special effects are top notch.

New podcast episode!

We always have a great time recording these Deep Space Nine discussion episodes. 

The quietness continues...

I haven’t been blogging lately because everything is quiet. Thankfully work is going good and family is good. My allergies have been acting up but other than that I am healthy and happy. 

My podcasting continues, here is what is coming up in The Pop Culture Pub Podcast:

Topic: PODCAST TIME MACHINE: Summer 1990! 

It’s been 30 years since the summer of 1990. Let’s reminisce about some of what went down that summer including:

• Back to the Future 3
• Total Recall
• Die Hard 2
• Robocop 2
• Gremlins 2
• Darkman

Also I saw this and thought it was awesome:
