One Eighteen: Migration

A couple teasers for Season Two coming August 1st.

Interview with Daphne Abernathy with a two minute preview of Ep One Season Two (Finding Zombies on the Craigslist)

Ok so bad news good news.  Alot to read here, bullet point is obviously no shows yet, new firm date for show starting is August 1st.   

Bad News: New shows will not start till August 1st.  I can't keep teasing you guys with deadlines I can't meet and it makes me feel like the worlds largest bag of douche to do so.  We've got one recorded and another couple out of sequence written, but I've got nine days where I'll be out of the country coming up in July, so if I put it out there there's going to be a lot of time in between and that would suck. 

Good News:  To help meet my deadlines, we've added a new person to the crew.  A few of you may have met Daphne Abernathy in Second Life, and she's the host of Going Broke With Daphne Abernathy and Daphne's Random Thoughts, along with a lot more stuff.  She is also the hardest working woman in podcasting, and she's going to join as assistant sound engineer to help me cut down the "Main Voice Track."

To geek out for a bit, the MVT is the hardest part of the process, it's taking a 2-3 hour recording session and cutting it into two episodes and two blooper reels, and it eats about seven hours of editing time.  It's not exactly difficult, but it pulls my focus away from writing and producing, and mixing sound.  I brought Daphne on for a couple reasons.

Her work ethic is second to none, shes in love with the show, and we're good enough friends she can call me an asshole for not getting shows out without me being able to get upset.  She's going to be half assistant and half fire under my ass. 

Also, While I will be gone for nine days this month, they'll only be vacation in terms of my money job.  I plan to use the freetime to write and edit the rest of season two and hopefully part of season three, to give me more time to work on editing in between shows. 

Finally, we really want to thank all of you for your patience, and for how much you dig the show.  I personally (Will) want to apoligize AGAIN for having gotten off track (also for lack of spell check on this computer :) )

Here are the teaser props we gave out in the goodie bags at the Otaku Omaha Anime convention.  Props were made by our own Christian Haunton and attendees recieved just one page of the four cause we're evil like that.  Just something to nom nom on while we're getting episodes ready. 

Please note that if you read these you will go insane.

More fun stuff to come. (Also feel free to snatch these and do whatever with them, I just think they look cool as hell.)

OneEighteeners,

I know you're in total shock but we're gonna be running about a week behind, and by we I mean me (Will.)  If you don't already know we live in Omaha, NE which had like three tornados in a week and a half and between power outtages, sump pump issues and branch removal has kinda gotten me off track. 

Yes, I am the Alan Moore of podcasting.

Season Two of One Eighteen: Migration starts June 13th, 2008 (the day the mess started!)

We decided to make Episode 9 the cut off for Season 1 because it seemed like a more logical place to seperate the arcs, and because it will make it less convoluted on I-pods based on our current labeling method.  (Long story short, when you get to two digit numbers, my bad labeling would confuse your Ipod)

Blah blah blah summation, we hope you like Season 2 as much as you enjoyed Season 1 :)
