Delay on "What Is Birdo" Video and how Unscripted Honesty videos are made (Patreon)

I know the "What Is Birdo" video won the poll, but I'm afraid it might be delayed for a bit, because it's ending up being a bigger ordeal than expected.  Not just that, but life and mental health are getting in the way of video production.  Not only that, but I have a planned trip to Colorado at the end of the month I need to prepare for.

So with all this piling on me, I might have to make some Commercial Break episodes instead to fill in, since they're quicker to produce and I don't know how long the Birdo video will take to make (not to mention the next Cartoon Catastrophes video).  I hope y'all don't mind.

The other question might be, why is the Birdo video taking so long?  So I figured I'll give a little insight on how I make episodes of Unscripted Honesty episodes get made.

When I decide to do an Unscripted Honesty episode, I pick a topic I'm passionate about, and then record myself talking about it at length, mostly off the top of my head, though I'll use references when they're needed, like the Pacula video.  This normally produces an audio recording that is between 15-20 minutes long.  These are always extremely rambling and so I tend to have to edit a lot of it.  I make a point not to record more dialog and just work with what I recorded.  Once the editing is done and the visuals are added, the video is usually around 10 minutes in length.

Well, the Birdo recording I made ended being somewhere around 45-50 minutes in length.  Which is gigantic.  None of the Unscripted Honesty subjects I've brought to the table ever produced such a long rambly audio file before.  Which means it's going to take a lot more time to edit it.  I guess I just had a lot to say about Birdo.

So that's the main reason it's taking so long.  Sorry about that.  I'll try to get it edited and put together as soon as possible.  In the mean time, please enjoy the Commercial Break videos I make in it's place.

Thanks for understanding.
