We are! With three bits of News for you, brave listeners…take heed:
1) We are soon to be recording the next story arc, entitled, “To Russia With Love.” One of our fans, and live show attendees, Marc Hayworth, came up with that little gem. Randolph Moon kidnapped, The Staff of Khan stolen, and The Unknown out of town. Once Taliesin Jaffe returns from the other coast, we shall put it down to (digital) tape!
2) Lest you thought we’d forgotten about the YouTube of the Extraordinary, we are almost done with Episode Two of ‘The French Affair’ visual story. Here’s a taste:
And 3) Should you wish to comment on any of our news items, please send email. Comment spambots have completely hijacked the Comments section…hence the 0 comments on every post. We no longer even look at them.
Have a comment, question, accusation? Hit the Mail link up above and let us know. We feel like we’re in a bubble sometimes. Let us know you are actually reading this, if you please!
At last, the first chapter of “The French Affair” from the 1920’s pulp adventure radio serial, Tales of the Extraordinary, transformed into a visual slideshow.
For thos who missed it, the second episode of Mr. Mojito’s Voodoo Review went up last week!
Wherein Barry ‘preenacts’ Enemy Mine, Gatsby is rescued with booze, and Dickie meets the Castros!

Also, I found out three interesting things today:
1) People still use Zunes
2) Zune has a podcast marketplace.
3) Tales of the Extraordinary is on it:

And for those keeping up with our YouTube video we’re prepping, here’s a quick scene from the French Affair we put up as an example of what we’re trying to do:
Besides writing the next story arc (Mr. Mojito’s Voodoo Review), and continuing to prepare for the Trailer live-action shoot (the director got a show picked up for Disney and is now in development hell), we are also attempting to put ourselves up on YouTube.
To that end, we are doing a photo shoot of stills for The French Affair story arc. After post production and syncing it with the audio, it will probably be posted early next year. Here’s to hopin…
The Bloopers episode…er…BLUE-pers…for Season Two of Tales. NSFW. There is Pinocchio sodomy, unintentional homoeroticism, and…Windows to Sky. Cobbled together from the last few recording sessions and live performances.
For those who haven’t heard the final episode of “The Lost City of Ford,” it is up on the site and the podcast…just click this fast link:
The Lost City of Ford
Well, anyway…as you listen, you may notice some of that dialogue sounds awfully familiar. As if perhaps from a song? Well, one of our loverly fans out there did and wrote this in:
“I listened to part 4 of The Lost City of Ford recently and really enjoyed the “Institutionalized” references. When I heard, “I’m not crazy! You’re the one that’s crazy!” I immediately thought of that song, and when it was followed up by “… when I went to your churches…” etc., I knew it was no coincidence. Thanks!

That and the Pepsi-Cola line, yes. We have no shame.
This reminds me of course that we are working on our Notations booklet to send out in time for X-Mas…we hope…more information as time goes on.
The live shows at The Spot may be over, but we’ve still got one more bonus show in us…and will be opening for the long-running Dungeon Master show this Saturday in Hollywood.
This will also be the first show written by Matt Yamashita (The Unknown/Gatsby), so we are all very frightened.
Though our unintentionally homoerotic performance of Episode Three failed to stream, the video from Episode Two is up for your perusal, in case you are wondering what one of our shows is like:

And of course, the aforementioned EPisode Three is now available for your perusla, sans fits of laughter at every innuendo:
