The last several weeks I've been thinking about the podcast a lot.  I've done it pretty much weekly for a very long time.  Starting next month (Jan. - 2012) I'm going to an every other week schedule (or about twice a month).  This will leave about two open weeks a month.  My hope is that most months I can pencil someone in to guest host on at least one of those weeks.  But, if not that will be ok too.  I just find time is tight these days and I need to somehow get more of it.  If anyone has a big, blue police box out there - I could use it!  Anyway, my hope is to try some new stuff out, maybe slip a little informal minicast in or video from time to time.  Or even work on the many other ideas and projects I've been wanting to tackle.  So, I hope all of you will understand and stick with me.  I'm kind of excited by this and I think it may allow more of you to participate and do some podcasts for all of us to hear.  I really do enjoy those.  Thanks everyone for the support.

Got no problems with that Rico.

Being somebody who does an irregular podcast and struggling to find time to put one out every six weeks or so I can't imagine how much time you guys that have weekly shows have to commit and I totally admire you for having done it for so long!

Looking forward to hearing what your ideas for Treks In SciFi - The Next Generation! :)

Frankly I have been awed by your consistency in carrying on for so long.  Twice monthly sounds good to me - as long as we have out community here on the forum.  :)

Totally understand and I am totally bummed. But that's purely me being selfish as I love the cast and the content. I can only imagine what a challenge it is to do it on a weekly basis as you have for so long. But you so deserve to take some of that time back and travel new roads. What if I promise to keep my shirt on? ;)

Rico,

I think that's a great idea. It's been wonderful to listen to you and everyone who has done guest podcasts. You gotta do what's good for you. I am in full support!  ;D

@ Bryancd You wouldn't be you if you kept your shirt on!  ;D

treks in sci fi has been going on so consistently for so long, if anyone deserves a break it's you. it's a great idea and as long as we still have our friends on the forum, it's fine by me :)

Perfectly understand. It only took us about 2 or 3 months before we dropped the weekly podcast format for every 2 weeks...and even that seemed too much at times.

Slacker. ;) strewth I mean come on its easy.

Lol totally understand mate, you've done a bang on job producing a show a week. Will jump in as a guest host whenever I can.

Sounds good to me.. it's always amazed me that folks could do a weekly podcast and hold a full time job. I hope these eases things a bit on you.

Rico

Thanks for the support guys.  It means a lot to me.  Start thinking about doing some guest spots.  I'll have two coming up in January which is only a month away!

Good for you Rico, hopefully it allows you some more time to do other things with your weekend.

Sounds good to me, was surprised you managed to keep going for as long as you did!  :)

Perfectly understandable and as my listening time seems about to take a bit of a hit, I'm sure I'll cope :) (Of course, TrekSF will always be the last podcast I'll drop if it comes to serious load shedding!)

I know it's unnusual here but I don't have a podcast of my own.

Pete and I have been threatening to get together and record something, maybe this will be the motivation we need to get moving on it.

I completely understand, Rico.  Your podcast has been the start of my workweek for a couple of years now.  I've enjoyed your podcast immensely.  Every other week is better than no TreksinScifi.
