"In space, even the bravest sometimes face their worst nightmares...nothing has prepared us for the enemy we fight now: Ourselves. In the Mirror Universe, up is down...good is evil...and we... are just trying to survive."
- Captain Francis Reeves

Hey Fans!
So... you might have noticed we've been a bit slow on updating you on what's going on behind the scenes. Unfortunately, there's a lot of craziness in the world today and we had some things come up that caused some unavoidable delays. We're wishing our cast and crew the best of luck in these uncertain times.
Waldo and I have put our heads together to come up with a solution that would give you - the fans and listeners - the best experience possible. We've decided the way we're heading isn't it: too many ways that the world can hold us back by weeks at a time. So we're going to hold off releasing any more official episodes until March 2009. This is a bummer for us in the short-term, but we're very excited in the long-term, and believe me - we're not giving up on this. Our cast is committed, and so are we. The way we thought about it is this - we can either put out a varying-quality, half-assed podcast that from time-to-time is on-time, or we could take a bit of time, get our stuff together, and come back with something great for you. Hopefully we picked right.
When we come back in March, 2009 - you can expect three full seasons, six months each - with three months of gap between each season. We'll be releasing on every 5th and 19th (that's right - TWO hour-long episodes per month!). I don't believe that's something that has ever been done before in terms of a series. Personally, I hate waiting a whole month to hear my favorites come back.
We're going to keep you updated on the blog - so keep visiting, and we'll be working very hard in the meantime. We may even produce a few shorts involving the crew, or some short stories on the blog from time to time while you wait for us to come back :)
Thanks and see you soon!
Nick Armstrong & Waldo Ovase
