Oops... (Not Episode 3)

Oops!

Mark made an error during the process of pre-editing and editing Episode 3, so here is the explanation for why the episode is going to be late, as well as a bit of a peek behind the curtain for folks thinking about doing a podcast. Learn from my mistakes people!

Episode 3 should go live on March 29th. Whether the regular schedule will shift to follow that or revert to something close to what we were doing before is yet to be determined.

Thanks!

With Mark Kinney, Carol, and Eric AKA Blindgeek. What we've been up to, including discussion of Wonder Woman. Mark has been to HyperiCon. We originally had a segment run by Mark talking about the Geek Chic going out of business story, but seeing as we really had nothing to add at the time and the passage of time since then, it has been cut. Carol talks about editing! Future editing topics. Eric talks about outsourcing as a gamemaster. A little Tales of the Ordo Noctis feedback. Sense8. Too much to watch... Shows without endings (and a few that got them anyway).
