You may begin the rejoicing....now.
Okay, that's enough. At long last I have new content for you! Tremble before a deadly tag-team of animated clunkers: Thunder Prince and Beauty & Warrior! Have a little extra turkey with your Thanksgiving.
Screencaps and notes to follow.
Direct download is here.
Rest assured that episode 12 of the podcast is definitely in production. The Cohort came through and shortly after I sounded the call I had Beauty & Warrior in hand and attacking me, much as the monster textbook attacked Harry Potter...
Anyway, for those of you who are going through withdrawal symptoms until the next episode is released I present my recent appearance on the I ♥ The 80’s Podcast, hosted by Eeeper where I spent a good hour and a half dissecting and reveling in the awesomeness that is Conan the Barbarian.
Give it a listen!
Tonight I have a special guest review to share with you...even though it's still me reading it.
I present to you Matt Murray's review of The Happening, the latest bit of cinematic navel-gazing from M. Night Shyamalan.
For more from Matt, be sure to visit Corn Pone Flicks, a noted repository of dusty fan parodies and fake movie trailers that somehow manage to outshine a lot of things today. Funny how that goes sometimes.
If you enjoyed hearing his review, be sure to let me know--and me! I'd love to do more of these reviews, but I need you, the listener, to help decide that.
As promised, I've got a folder of podcast direct downloads! Feel free to dive into the sack until I get it unpacked and more properly sorted out.
Oh yeah, and there's a new episode of the podcast too! More robust show notes will follow--you know the drill. Midnight oil and all that (no "Beds Are Burning" gags, please).
It's the bottom of the ninth, bases loaded, full count--and Battlefield Baseball steps up to the plate. Will it knock one out of the park or will folks in the box seats feel the breeze from an almighty whiff?

I find "podfading" to be such a toxic, corporate-sounding term that I am very hesitant to use it. And yet it seems I'm falling into that trap, am I not? Rest assured that production continues on the next episode, even if it's been slowed to a crawl.
I've just returned from four days out in the woods at Gettysburg PA for a large Civil War reenactment, part of which was a four-mile march across parts of the actual battlefield. Over 170 men participated in this voluntary excursion (maybe 10% of the total that were at the rest of the event), something I'm not likely to ever see in my lifetime again at that scale.
Outside of my duties with that as a battalion sergeant major, which took a lot of planning and time away from the show for the past few months, I've been massively swamped with large-quantity jobs at my place of employment. We're talking 12,000 and 20,000 piece jobs where the equipment can output maybe 100 units per hour, in addition the myriad smaller quantity jobs that flow through the place every day. Pretty much every day in May and June has become a precarious balancing act.
The growing impatience I am seeing from the Cohort as I am increasingly nudged to get on with it is, surprisingly, an encouragement to me. It means you want more, and that you haven't completely given up on me.
Believe me, I'm working on it and you'll have it soon enough.
For serious. Temporary direct download is here. I will be announcing new hosting shortly.
Prepare yourself for:

My primo homey Klytus with Deep Roy as Fellini. Yes, as in Frederico Felini.
Awesome cigar-shaped spaceships.
Glazed nose in full effect.

...oh, and Timothy Dalton too.
The hour is late and the flesh is weak. Suffice it to say that I will be back later this day to expand on this skeletal of notices for what is bound to be a very talked-about episode of the podcast.
Direct download is here, and I promise that these direct download links are going to change fairly soon.
Feel free to choose your metaphor: a submarine surfacing after months below the ocean, the first daffodils of springtime punching through the last vestiges of a winter's frost, the light at the end of the tunnel, the arrival of the pizza delivery man...
I'm back! And I've got a new episode to share with you! The subject, other than regaling (boring) you with tales from real life, is Muteki Kanban Musume, a fun little romp through the tried and true standards of shonen fighting shows.

Oh and this is for Daryl:
This is your horse.
This is my horse. I am 6'4" tall. My horse is a tall horse. Yes he is!
