Please Note: This week’s episode had to be split into two parts.

[Update: Fixed it. Now it's one part. Move along, nothing to see here, folks.]

(A long-ish explanation follows. But if you don’t care, please just click over to Part One, and don’t forget to click on to Part Two!)

Episode 3 was a little too long for Vimeo. I’m not sure why the Powers That Run Vimeo feel that Plus members who pay for 5GB of weekly uploads should only be able to upload 1GB files. If we’re paying for 5GB, shouldn’t we just get 5GB to use any way we see fit? Makes sense to me.

It’s curious to me that, as Internet users become more accustomed to watching longer videos online via outlets like Hulu, the principle video sites like YouTube and Vimeo are wrapping size restrictions around their users. Isn’t that a little like insisting on black-and-white just as color TVs become popular?

I tried Veoh, which has no size limit, but for some reason the file upload froze at 93.7% and didn’t budge for another eight hours. Every time I tried to re-upload, it went right back to 93.7% and stayed there.

In response, I may have invented new, radically complex strings of as-yet-unimagined profanities. Should’ve written them down; a few were about fifty letters long, I believe.

The only option I saw was to split the episode into two parts. I wish I didn’t have to, and I’ll continue looking for ways to upload the whole thing as a single file.

In the meantime, please start with Part One and continue to Part Two. Lara’s performance in the second half alone is absolutely worth the extra click! Seriously, don’t miss it.

Plus, this is the episode that introduces Rob, played by Ehren Ebbage, whose music provides the soundtrack for the show. And you get to see a clip of Ehren playing live as Rob (but it’s an Ehren song — did I just blow your mind?), which everyone should see at least once before they die.
