from 1953. \u00a0Until then, a big Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends in the United States. \u00a0Take care and enjoy your week ahead. \u00a0Bye for now!<\/p>\n<div class=\"powerpress_player\" id=\"powerpress_player_9538\"><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-3504-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/treksinscifi\/www.treksinscifi.com\/podcasts\/TreksinSciFi_514_Conventions.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/treksinscifi\/www.treksinscifi.com\/podcasts\/TreksinSciFi_514_Conventions.mp3\">http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/treksinscifi\/www.treksinscifi.com\/podcasts\/TreksinSciFi_514_Conventions.mp3<\/a><\/audio><\/div><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_links_mp3\" style=\"margin-bottom: 1px !important;\">Podcast: <a href=\"http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/treksinscifi\/www.treksinscifi.com\/podcasts\/TreksinSciFi_514_Conventions.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_pinw\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Play in new window\" onclick=\"return powerpress_pinw('http:\/\/treksinscifi.com\/podcast_notes\/?powerpress_pinw=3504-podcast');\" rel=\"nofollow\">Play in new window<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/treksinscifi\/www.treksinscifi.com\/podcasts\/TreksinSciFi_514_Conventions.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_d\" title=\"Download\" rel=\"nofollow\" download=\"TreksinSciFi_514_Conventions.mp3\">Download<\/a><\/p><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_subscribe_links\">Subscribe: <a href=\"http:\/\/treksinscifi.com\/podcast_notes\/?feed=podcast\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_rss\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe via RSS\" rel=\"nofollow\">RSS<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week on the podcast it&#8217;s another great Skype chat as we talk all about Sci-Fi, Fantasy, and Comic Conventions. \u00a0I got together with my good friends: \u00a0Jen, Angela, Kenny, Chris, and Rick last night to talk all about the fun and things involved with attending a modern geeky convention. \u00a0We talk about the good [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3504","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-podcasts","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/treksinscifi.com\/podcast_notes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3504","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/treksinscifi.com\/podcast_notes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/treksinscifi.com\/podcast_notes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/treksinscifi.com\/podcast_notes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/treksinscifi.com\/podcast_notes\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3504"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/treksinscifi.com\/podcast_notes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3504\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3505,"href":"http:\/\/treksinscifi.com\/podcast_notes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3504\/revisions\/3505"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/treksinscifi.com\/podcast_notes\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3504"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/treksinscifi.com\/podcast_notes\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3504"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/treksinscifi.com\/podcast_notes\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3504"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
