Yes, Episode 1, our primitive ancestor. It's actually a pretty funny story. I was just sitting on the sofa with Will, drinking a coke, watching the Acquisitions Incorporated D&D game from PAX a few years back (Side Note: If you haven't seen Acquisitions Incorporated definitely check it out https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCi-PULMg2eD_v5AO0PlW4sg ) and all of a sudden it just occurred to me: There really isn't very much else out there like it.
Twitch streamers do a great job creating content for video gamers but by comparison table top fans are all but left out in the cold. No more, I say. At that moment, I decided that this was my job and within about ten minutes we were recording our first, rather ill fated episode. (Quick aside: If you are a first time reader/listener please give episode 2 a listen. It's much more...together than it's predecessor.) We couldn't figure out where the fan sound was coming from. I realized today that, in fact, episode one was actually recorded on an ancient headset mic that had fallen behind the desktop case onto the ground and was pressing up against the main fan.
Even as embarrassing as episode 1 was/is/shouldITakeItDownYouThink?/NoLetsJustTalkAboutItMore, as I'm editing the next one, I can't help but smile at the thought of its grandfather standing stalwart in the face of all opposition and reminding constantly me that I wanted to make something, that I did, and then asking what my name was again. Maybe that's an insensitive joke. Hmmm... Here check out this new logo sketch I did!
Finished version should be up with the new episode on Monday. (Yeah that seemed to do the trick they are on our side again.) The bottom line is, thank you all so much for reading, listening, subscribing, commenting, or what ever it is you do. Because at the end of the day, you're all the only reason to even do something like this and I am very grateful that I get to.
