Broadcast format changes

Hey fellers...
Google is doing away with Hangouts On Air as a standalone offering. They're forcing it into using the YouTube page for this. For what may be the first time ever, I kinda like what they're doing. There's a chance we'll be broadcasting directly on the YouTube page instead of the page on our website. This would allow for us to use YouTube's chat functionality instead of the paid chat app we currently have on the website. We're all paid up through next June, so there's some time to decide - but we'll be giving it a trial run over the next couple recordings.
I will be running both in the meantime, and will provide any updates on the existing broadcast page - so no one will miss a minute of our captivating productions
PS - it looks like we're going to record tomorrow (Saturday, Sept 10) instead of tonight....
