Maybe I missed it but was Neil Carson mentioned once in the film?Agreed, a bit more history would have been nice. Didn't Neil Carson move to Wales to complete the route. Is he still around? Would have been good to see some insights from the first ascentionist.

Q 1- Did he see the film, and how goes he feel about not getting included or acknowledged in the film?Nice one Sharkster.
Any recommendations on recording this? Did a trial run with Microsoft Teams and quality was terrible. Zoom requires a paid account.

I thought there was a free version of Zoom but that it's time limited (up to 40 mins?).

I don't think the free version is time limited if there are only 2 of you.

Wireless connection to wireless connection and using microphones built-in to your average laptop isn't going to yield great quality (I'd wager it's more geared towards certainty of maintaining the stream). At my old place I had a Madonna headset and various pieces of Jabra technology for when more that one person was using the same account.
He’s not seen it. Nor me for that matter
Free services will be poor quality.
Is he surprised at the low amount or repeats that BB has had since he first did it?

I am quite enjoying the old school analog quality of everything at the minute, i dont think it detracts at all.

The internet lied to me
Seems you can record on a free Zoom account. The internet lied to me
Is it true he moved to Wales to complete the route?
Has he got any tips for climbing the Austrian Oak at Malham
Tommy suggested OBS to record what’s on the screen which is free open source software which apparently “literally everyone uses it on Twitch” (whatever that is). Seems impressive and I’ll use it as a backup. https://obsproject.com/
He did a route at Caley to the left of Boot Crack, which climbed the wall between that and the arete. It joins Black Jumper near the top. Are there any holds on the direct finish or did he chicken out because pad stacks hadn't been invented yet.

Without fail I get my victims to say what I want them to say. Should have joined the Met
