Hi everyone. I'm going to take a short break from videos for a week or so to spend some time with my family, with great sadness I have to report we lost our beloved dog Oscar yesterday after a long battle with degenerative myopathy. He passed with his whole family present, myself, my wife and kids, surrounded by love. 🐶❤️😢

With Starfleet Academy concluded, and no other Star Trek coming up directly behind it, I'm considering covering FOR ALL MANKIND's 5th Season starting on 27th March. I've always loved the show and with ex-Star Trek alumni Ronald D. Moore and Joe Menosky on the creative team, well written and with great characters, I feel there is some Star Trek DNA in the recipe. If I started up some FOR ALL MANKIND content, would you guys out there be into that? Leave your thoughts in the comments below.
