Post-Launch Ruminations (Patreon)

It's gonna take a lot of work to get back to where we were with EWD, but I have faith we can get there! Right now, we have two of our series started: Shin Shit Shooters and Stephen's Kings, both with Cody. I'm proud of the work we have done already (and don't worry. Cody is getting a less potato sounding mic soon)

This weekend Wayne and I are gonna record a mini-series (micro-series?) and that will be next week. I feel it necessary to paint a broad outline of what the schedule will look like from here:

STEPHEN'S KINGS: The main series (currently Stephen's Kings) will air Friday, biweekly. This first week is a simultaneous freebie, just to get the ball rolling, but from now on the episodes will be posted here a week before they air on the free feed. That means NEXT Friday will also be a new episode and then the following Friday will be when that goes up for non-patrons.

SHIN SHIT SHOOTERS: This will be much like before and be biweekly as well, but on the off week. So when the free feed gets the new episode, you guys will get Shit Shooters. I am also considering alternating between Cody and Wayne for co-hosts. A future may come when we start up Patreon Exclusive Mini-Series in that same EWD format of 4 episodes at a time and we MIGHT have to make Shit Shooters monthly in that case, but only time will tell. It will be a 1 dollar thing for the foreseeable future.

WOW, COOL RO-POD: This one will be every Monday, at least. Possibly multiple times a week. It's a short, 10 minute cast that we record in bulk so we'll have to figure out the right balance of airing and stockpiling. Like Shit Shooters, you can get this one at the 1 dollar level

IT'S ONLY MAGIC VIDEOS: I currently have THREE videos in different states of completion. The second part of my Adventure Time retrospective, a video about cartoons you watch when you're home sick from school, and one about early 2000's CGI action cartoons. The latter two took me a while to nail down because I kept trying to approach them like my previous vids (tackling only one show with other shows there for context/framing) but feel like doing 3 mini-reviews related to each subject rather than just one big one is the way to go. There will still be big, personal retrospectives to come, but I wanna experiment with these videos. Definitely took a lot of inspiration from friend of the show Hazel. The Sick Day one has been in the works the longest (over a year now) so that will likely come first and hopefully will be out by September. In that case, you guys will see it first!

Alright, once we get some momentum and Cody and I hash it out, I'll be sure to fill everyone in on the status of future mini-series. I DO wanna have another main series concurrently with Stephen's Kings, but I might hold off until 2024 for that as to not overload myself with work. Keep in mind, this is something I am doing on TOP of a full time job. Peace out, everybody. Enjoy your pizzas this friday!
