Yeah it was fun. I wish Skype hadn't been so difficult, though. it made the interview less interactive than I wished it had been. On the upside, hearing it back was like hearing it for the first time ;)

I enjoyed both podcasts.. with Zack and the one that isn't up yet. You were great to have on there, very enjoyable.

We're not doing hardcore debate in these podcasts, so the discussion has always stayed friendly. But it's impossible to have a discussion on a specific topic without running into some differences of opinion and it would be boring if no one countered an opinion they disagreed with. So if you ever do join in on one, you should expect that.

Don't do it as a joke, though (you've told me before that you never take discussion of the show seriously). While we do have fun with these and try to keep the tone fairly light, we approach topics in a genuine manner.

If you've listened to the podcasts you can get a good idea of how we run things on Gnothi Seauton. Very casual, very friendly though at times we do disagree.

Like Roxy said, we are genuine in our discussions and take the topics seriously within the realm of the universe it's in.

We cannot guarantee that people will not disagree with you. That, of course, makes discussion fun when people have different views. We just ask that everyone keeps it civil and if that particular discussion continues to ping-pong, we'll just move on to the next subject within that topic.

So, like I said, if you'd like to join the podcasts you are more than welcome to participate. I am not going to put out a specific invitation to you, so you need to email the website after we've posted the next topic and move from there.

Again, this is a classic misunderstanding between the two of us. I disagree with you, I have no problem telling you I disagree with you, but that doesn't mean it's heated or a bad thing. We disagree, it's good for the soul.

And I'm not really sure what you are wanting to do with these emails. We don't take emails from beforehand and discuss them. The 4-5 people that are ON the podcasts will be the ones discussing. You're more than welcome to comment on the podcast after it's been posted and give your opinion. But we will not be integrating emails in within the podcast. Just get yourself a mic and join the discussion yourself.

Huh? I ask people to email me a short answer to the topic (in other words, their opinion in short version) with times and days they're available to record. That's why people email in. To join the podcast.

How do you not know how to use an internal mic? You just... speak.

Dude, you're wrong about the one-bedroom thing. You need to give it up. I know you won't, though, so before I waste time proving you wrong, let me know if you're just fucking with everyone or if you're being serious.

No, I just wanted to give you a chance to back out in case you were kidding. I'll put together a simple house layout and screenshots to show you. In the meantime, you should be a little more careful about what you stake your life on!

Okay, I have a diagram for you: New Mexico house layout

Like the other Connor house layouts, I've done, there's some guesswork (obviously) because I can only draw what's visible and what I can deduce. For example, I took a total guess at the door that leads from the garage to the house because there was a hallway there and it was a logical spot for such a door to be. I also have no idea if the spot I've got labeled as basement stairs is actually the basement stairs, but there's a door there and it seemed like a logical spot for basement stairs.

On the other side of the living room, there are four doors. From right to left, I've got those as hall closet, John's room, Sarah's room, bathroom. Because of the size/space available, hall closet really can't be anything other than a closet. Next is John's room, so there's no guesswork there. Now comes the stuff in question: Sarah's room and the bathroom.

I could have the doors to Sarah's room and the bathroom mixed up since we really don't know. But if I swapped those, the resulting rearrangement of walls to divide Sarah's room and the bedroom would make for a very funky (and unlikely) layout. So I think what I've chosen as her room is the most plausible.

Notice the turn you have to make inside her doorway to get to the main part of her room. I think that's where you've been confused:

Close-up on break-away wall

When Cameron and Cromartie are fighting, he throws her through the back of the kitchen pantry and into the kitchen, then back across the living room, through the half-wall (right of the couch). From there, they crash through Sarah's door, through that corner wall inside Sarah's doorway (marked with the red dotted line) and into John's room. That's why it seems like there are two doors to John's room.

Make sense now?

I think you missed the point that it's not Sarah's room Cameron and Cromartie fell into lol

Cameron and Cromartie went through Sarah's door and her WALL and went into John's room. We never saw the main space of Sarah's room...

The poster was in John's room (the wall that was shared between his room and the entrance to Sarah's room)

LOL. Hey, you forced me into this.

I can't even believe you're going to try to throw details at me to refute anything after I just studied the house making that diagram...

You're wrong about the poster. That "Iron Metal" poster is on John's wall. It's on the break-away wall (red-dotted line wall) that Cameron and Cromartie crash through. Specifically, it would be the part of that wall that would be to your left if you were facing John's closet.

As for Sarah's furnishings, well, we never actually see the inside of her room, so you can't say she has none.but since there's furniture in every room we do see, it would be silly to think her bedroom is unfurnished.

And you call yourself a detective? :P

Yeah, we should really promote them better. Like I said... I've been slacking. If you ever want to do one with us, just email schmacky@gnothiseauton.com. She posts the upcoming topics on the website (click the blog link at the top for topic & participation info).

I have seen that interview with BAG. There's also a recent one with producer John Wirth (about The Cape) in which he talks a bit about TSCC season 3 as well. It's nice to get these little tidbits, but it always saddens me that there is never any info about what the present-day storyline might've been like.

That interview actually prompted the latest podcast that will be up some time this week... about John Connor and what makes him iconic.
