Happy New Year, chat thread! Was looking forward to spending the day in my pajamas and maybe trying to read a book for a few minutes but I've got a surprise brunch with the in-laws so I'm dragging my hungover rear end out into the gray, cold, wet morning.

I’m really happy with Pocket Casts on Apple; I assume they’re available on Android.

This is what I use on Android and it's been everything I need it to be

Sorry to change the subject but the trailer I (my team and I) have been working on just dropped and I'm proud of this one. The trailer and movie rule. I posted this just now in the trailer thread but want to share it here too.

If you like John Wick, Nobody, The Raid, that kind of poo poo but want a socio-economic subtext involving the caste system this poo poo is for you. Dev Patel's directorial debut and this is probably the beginning of a tentpole franchise. He's going to be a thing.

The combination of smoke for both the butt and the gender reveal made me picture blue or pink smoke coming out of your smoker lol.

Comes out pink if it's a butt, blue if it's a tenderloin

No Man's Sky is a survival crafting game that lied to me I hate that game :mad:

Never played it but I just heard this morning that 65daysofstatic did the soundtrack. I used to listen to them in college but thought they broke up like 15 years ago. Soundtrack sounds pretty good!

Edit: ^^ I want to believe your mom actually calls you Skwirl

Thanks! Keeping my fingers crossed for the forecast to hold. Spent the whole day with the fam at the zoo. Kids loved it and the dolphin dome is amazing. Got pooped on 3 times by the lorikeets but they are still cute and sat on my kids so they get a pass.

If you're in town long enough, the Children's Museum is world-class and well worth a visit. Cafeteria is an outrageous ripoff, though.

I knew I couldn't get a good photo so I didn't want to use up too much time trying. The few I did take didn't even look like an eclipse. This was totality:

Wife's birthday tomorrow, snuck to the store to get stuff to make a cake as well as let the kids pick out some decorations and flowers, then hid everything so we could do it all tomorrow while she is at work. Literally within 2 seconds of getting home the 5 year old told her everything unprompted.

We can't tell my 4-year-old what gifts we get people because she has a history of telling them what the gift is right before they open it

Any of y'all been to Rome? I'm spending a couple days there for work and have 1.5 days free. I've got one morning going to the colleseum, the Roman forum and Palantine Hill, then will probably get lunch then I got the rest of day till dinner. I might head to the Vatican if my Catholic guilt takes over but I'm also upset with the church so...

Getting dinner that night then I've got a gala dinner the following evening as I pretend I'm a serious businessman.

If you want to see stuff like the Colosseum, look into buying a Roma Pass ahead of time. You'll see a long line at the Colosseum but that's just to buy tickets. If you have the Roma Pass then you can skip the ticket line and waltz right in. For the Colosseum and the Forum I downloaded audio tours from the Rick Steves app and listened to them with headphones while walking around.

I'm not normally one to spring for guided tours but the Vatican is one place I felt really benefitted from having a guide. I went with Walks of Italy when I visited the Vatican and that worked out pretty well.
