Abstract
A system is provided for establishing a shared media session for one or more client devices. One or more processors in the system are configured to establish a shared media session that includes a disparate live media output stream scheduled by a first client device to start at a defined timestamp, and played back on one of the first client device or a plurality of client devices that join the shared media session through a distributed communication network. A persistent record of event data and media, synchronized based on one or more criteria and received from a recording client device, is generated corresponding to the shared media session and previous shared media sessions until the shared media session is terminated by at least one of the first client device or by abandonment of the distributed communication network by the plurality of client devices.
