I saw an interviewwith the first host of Forged In Fire were he revealed that the execs forced them to award the win to the Judge instead of the contestant in one of the early "Beat The Judges" competitions and that's one of the reasons he left. I'm not saying that is rampant or anything, but ever since then it's planted a kernel of doubt in my mind that kind of ruined the fairness, if that makes sense.

Show is still one of the better competitions out there and the smiths are absolutely amazing

Amen, I grabbed a Henson razor handle that presets the blade angle and depth. It's more expensive than a normal safety razor handle, but my hands aren't steady enough to use a normal handle. Either way it takes normal razor blades. I got 200 Feather blades for $50 a couple of years ago and I'm not even halfway through.

All that being said I keep a Harry's handle and cartridges in my travel bag because it's just easier to get through TSA

Dude I'm in the same boat. I just turned 40. I was having regular check-ins due to a run in with cancer (Testicular, Stage 1, caught it, beat it, done) and it just so happened that my check-ins were a few days after I would give blood. They straight up ordered me to stop giving blood for a while 🤣

Still wound up with a colonoscopy because they wanted to check me out to make sure (clean as a whistle, and I had an upper endoscopy in the same visit)

Oh yah, Caleb's reaction to Terima's accidental psychic poke is completely understandable. I think I said that but maybe I didn't word it right.

What I was referring to is how they handled it and how quickly Caleb realized that it was an accident and Terima wouldn't intentionally hurt him. I don't think Episode 1 Caleb would have come to the realization that quickly.

Another excellent episode from SFA. Honestly for me the show is firing on all cylinders.

  • The opening intimacy between Terima and Caleb was the right combination of sensual and sweet for me. I liked that more attention was paid to the "pillow talk" afterwards with Terima's story about her experience with a Deltan and Caleb's reaction to it
  • I also feel like the end of this scene shows Caleb's character growth a bit. We understand why he reacted the way he did to Terima suddenly seeing his childhood. Yes he's an ass at first as the defenses instinctively trigger, but I like that he quickly stands down and realizes (as Terima is leaving) that he messed up and one of the first things he says to her when they get back into contact is an apology. I don't think we would have seen that, or at least as quickly, from Episode 1 Caleb.
  • Caleb rooms with Ocam, right? I don't care how supportive Ocam is of Terima's relationship with Caleb, that had to be an awkward conversation when Caleb asked for the room for the night. Or maybe Betazoids are more open about that kind of thing, they do have naked weddings sooo... Idk
  • Nooo! Bobby! B'avi!
  • The Kyle/Jay-Den ship is sailing along I see
  • I like how the officers on the bridge let the cadets help and didn't shove them aside when shit hit the fan.
  • Paul Giamatti and Holly Hunter were just absolutely amazing this episode. They are both multiple award winning performers and they showed it here. Giamatti in particular is chewing the scenery all over the place. It takes a great actor to make a great villain and Giamatti doesn't disappoint here. I genuinely hate Braca after this episode.
  • Terima thinks Caleb is going to hate her after she went all psychic Black Canary. I don't think so, I think Caleb (after all the trauma resolves and Terima gets out of a coma) is going to be like "My girlfriend is BADASS"

I have an uncle who thinks anything to the left of NewsMax or OAN is "too liberal" (yes that includes Fox News). The indoctrination is real

It looks like he also spun off another channel to host the "Ranked By Babish" style content called Beyond Babish
