Sorry Carl, I'm not gonna stay up untill 4AM or get up then just to hear your voice. But you got to do what you think is best for the show and keep on .NET Rocking.

If you record it on Thursday, does that mean you could get the downloads up earlier?

I guess live is out for me then (East coast US). I am usually settled in bed reading an ebook by then! But maybe it is for the best. I like the technical discussions on the show, but the sometimes off-color banter is on the verge of starting to be offensive. The rule in my house is that I do not watch or listen to anything my teenagers cannot watch or listen to (lead by example.) And I do not think I could let them listen to .NET Rocks!.

I look forward to cracking open a beer, putting my feet up and tuning in. If the mood strikes me, I may call in with a question or I may just enjoy the mix of technical content, interesting guest and sometimes off-color banter. I try to remember that it's a talk show. If I want straight technical info, there are plenty of resources out there on the net, or I can just take a class from Franklins.net ;)

Seriously, I'm really happy about the new time slot. The kids are in bed and Daddy's ready to rock.

Cool, Jim. Maybe you could make the trek down some night and have a beer with us in the studio!

Bah! Now I'll have to stay up til 2am! I guess there is no way to please everyone. Surely the best option is to put the show on when the majority of people can listen live. Perhaps you should run a poll your site to guage the most popular time.

Anyway - I'll just have to check out the recorded version (or fill up my DNR mug with espresso!). Keep on rockin' !!

Carl,

You guys are ok with a studio audience at 10PM? If so, I'll do my best to get their tonight! I'll even bring Jim with me ;)

Joe Grenier said:

I'll even try to get THERE tonight (hey, I was a science major, not English).

Come on over. Bring a cell phone because the front door gets locked at 6!

We did that. Most people can listen at night. Sorry.

Damn I forgot until 11 PM PST and then I got Server too Busy messages when I tried to connect. I'm most definately a night owl and was looking forward to the show too. Hopefully you'll do a night one again, especially since my new job doesn't afford me an opportunity to listen during the day. My last job did and I like listening live over the mp3 but whatever works is all good.

Server too busy??? That's not right.

So, we still have to wait till Monday to hear the recorded show? (Night is not so good for me...) :(
