I know many folks listen to our commentary tracks while they're having dinner, cleaning their place, soaking in a hot tub, etc. I'm wondering if you prepare your food and/or warm up your hot tub before you even begin a new track, or if you wait until I say "press pause" and then take as long as you need before pressing play again. This randomly popped into my head and now I'm so curious!

(Also this really only applies to folks that sync the tracks up with what we're watching, if you listen to the tracks on their own like a podcast then I imagine this wouldn't matter.)

I usually pause the first logo, play the track and get a snack and then if it's a "we synch at something unexpected" i pause and play but often like GenV it's the first logo so it works and i just play when u say pause and seems to be in time

It’s a running start for me. I usually can guess around where you’ll sync so set it up like that and then just hit play in the movie. If it isn’t synced right then I fast forward or rewind until I’m synced but only the movie. Musicals are my fav because you usually sing and will say like oh that was early or late or you won’t say anything which means I’m right on lol

If it's a movie track I assume the intro will be longer than for an episode of a series, so I start it and listen while prepping my snacks and then pause if necessary, but I often try to "beat the clock" and sit down just in time!

Feel like I can't really do much but wait for the part where you say, "in order to sync up this" if it were a podcast then sure, but with a specific time to start a film or show gives me so much anxiety, I gotta get that part done so I can then relax.

And as a side not I miss your guys old podcast use to watch it every Friday I believe or whenever it came out, bring it back.
