Hello Listeners. Because I suspect many people might be popping back here regularly to check for the arrival of Episode 45, I thought it only polite to give you an update.
Episode 45 is HUGE. It's easily the biggest podcast episode I've ever produced; the story content alone runs to over an hour, making it double the length of an average episode. I'm still working on the story audio content - making sure every moment of recording is absolutely the best it can be. But once that's done, I have some important notices to write about and record for the outro which relate to the future of Underwood and Flinch - and details of a forthcoming project that will involve you (I hope) in that future. There will also be a bumper Planet U&F because lots of you wanted to get in at the last minute before U&F ends (no more recordings, please - we're completely full up!)
This massive workload is (understandably) taking a long time to produce, but add to this the fact that next week, my wife and are moving apartment again! (3rd time since U&F started) So there'll be a lot of packing up and trucking about. And then, the week after that, I'll be offline.
So, while I hope to get the episode live next week (in between packing and moving), I can't guarantee it. So it may be another two weeks before the episode goes live. I know that has you wailing and punching the computer screen, but console yourself with the knowledge that when it does come, it's double the size of a normal episode, so if you have to wait double the length of time, the pay off is proportionate.
I could, of course, rush it ... but then the episode would be cr*p, so rushing it would be a really stupid thing to do.
Have patience, people. It'll be worth the wait
