Updates (no !!! so I'm not Aly ;))

HARRY POTTER HARRY POTTER HARRY POTTER HARRY... oops, this is a Lost podcast, isn't it? Heh. Hi there! If you want to join in our HP discussion, please go to http://www.jackandkate.org/forums/index.php?topic=395.0 where we're all reeling from the last book, but beware of spoilers of course!

As for why we've been so awol, I thought I'd update with a few things. First of all, Elle, Alex and Kristen are... around, not exactly sure where, but so it's just me and Aly these days. This both speeds up and slows down the process of getting shows out, interestingly enough, as of course it is much easier to plan and record shows with only two people, and even easier to edit to some degree, because there are less files to sync. However, since we are only two, the editing work also must be split between us, and as we've both been busy alternatively crying our eyes out, waving our wands around and squeeing excessively - or is that just me?, the shows have sort of been piling up, and it takes quite a big breath attempting to get up to date. I managed to do the bloopercast, hope you all enjoyed that by the way, and now I'm tackling the Harry Potter comparison cast (recorded pre-DH). I'm pretty much done with it really, so it'll be up within the next few days if Nicole is around! Then there's the Greatest Hits which Aly is busy as a beaver working on around the clock of course, heh, then a commentary (won't tell you which episode, you can wait and see ;)) me and Aly recorded AGES ago, and I thought it was finished but... I have no idea where the file is so I have to redo it, but that shouldn't take long, then a NewsCast with um, new-ish news, which I assume I'm doing as well unless Aly finishes the GH episode... and then we can start recording again! That Jacket debate is coming up soon guys, and that should be pretty awesome, so be excited!

Otherwise, just... hang in there, I know it feels like Lost should be just around the corner, but the autumn will fly right by and before you know it it's my birthday! I mean, season 4. What a better present eh? Well depending on what happens, of course! I've been reading lots of HP fanfics so I'm pretty out of it, but had a really cool Jate dream last night with a burning labyrinth and the Whomping Willow... but they both said ily so it was a good dream! Reminded me why I love this ship so much <3

What's to Come

Hey everyone! Props to you for checking our blog, we ARE beginning to get the hang of updating so you know where you've got us! Obviously its been a few months (like, one month, but it's gone by fast-ish! We'll make it!) since Lost and the fandom is starting to scatter slightly - a few of us FateCasters are getting geared up for Harry Potter this month *omg omg omg* and we are losing files and computers and contact like it's no one's job, but we are still getting podcasts out as you've noticed, we have no plans to stop, and we do have a plan (we'll need some dynamite, a black rock and a hatch........ ummm hehe) - we have got two recorded discussions - one on Kate in season 3 and one on the s1 soundtrack - which may or may not have been lost, sadly, then we have a commentary more coming up - we'd like to interchange these with actual shows, but bad luck has so far prevented it, so the 2nd commentary will probably be released as this week's show. Coming up is a Jack discussion (look for another Erica appearance), a Skate in s3 discussion, fun and games, more commentaries, Jacket and Skate debates, and probably some other things I can't think of right now - but if you have any other suggestions please email us them! Our plan will last us the weeks until Lost starts up again, but the more impact you have on the show, the more fresh it will hopefully be! I can't post our email address here for spam reasons, but it starts with fatecast and ends in gmail....... fill in the blanks ;) Thanks in advance, and we hope you're enjoying the podcasts we do get out! Keep the fate - it's Jate! Or something.... :)

FateCast updates!

Just recorded the second FC commentary which should be out shortly! I am also editing the FC we recorded a few weeks ago, had some messups and general confusions! Aly is having troubles with her computer, which is another reason we've had confusions and delays - let's cross our fingers that she recovers very vital files!

If you still haven't, check out the first FC commentary, of All the Best Cowboys, which can be downloaded through our iTunes feed or from http://www.jackandkate.org/podcast :)

And check out the HURLEY ATE MY BABY Myspace everybody!! We are getting seriously into making filks now, and we need all of you to help us spread the word! This band isn't just for Jaters, and we hope non-/other shippers will eventually know about it too!

Talk to you guys soon! Remember we always love hearing what you have to say, so please email us etc!

FateCast #11: "Zip Your Pants up, Sawyer!"

Episode 11 is up, and ON TIME! If you aren't subscribed on iTunes (please do!), the download is here: http://podcast.jackandkate.org/episodes/Fatecast11.mp3

Enjoy! And let us know what you thought by email or on the jackandkate.org forums! It's just about an hour (like ZOMG), and we're really starting to get into the new format. This episode was led by Kristen, and we discuss The Brig, specifically why Jack is acting towards Kate the way he is and what their plan is, and the spoiler segment focuses on some dark and sinister finale rumours - which it probably will continue to do for the remaining weeks. Note that these are still just rumours.

"That's it?"

That's it!
