STATE OF THE EXPANDED FANDOMVERSE UNION

You’re probably wonder “Hey, when is the next episode of that awesome Star Wars Podcast, THE EXPANDED FANDOMVERSE, going to be posted?!?”

Well, first off, thank you, and secondly, it’s coming, it’s coming…

As I’ve said before, when I started this project, I was giving myself the first 10 episodes to be my “beta-period”.  Well, looking back on the first 10 episodes, they ended up more like an “alpha period”.  Basically, what I am saying is, the show needs a lot of work.  Yes, I am doing this just for the fun of it, but still, I don’t want it to be embarrassing!

So, right now, I am taking a little “breather” before I move into the next phase of the show, and I am working on some improvements.  “Like what?” you ask.  Well, let me tell you…

I am about to start work with someone who can help me create a unique intro, and other segment bumpers, for the show.  Just a little something to give the show a tiny bit of polish and class.

Also, I am about start auditioning for a co-host.  (Look for a post about this soon, if you are interested!)  I listen to a LOT of Star Wars podcasts, and it seems to me that the best shows always have a pair of hosts.  Two people having a conversation is always more interesting then listening to one guy talk to himself.

Also, I am changing the focus of the show just a little bit.  Originally, the idea was to just find a complete stranger and just talk about Star Wars with them.  I still think this is a good idea, but I have found the better conversations I have had, have been the ones when I am talking to someone who is DOING something with their love of Star Wars.  So, from now on, I will still be talking to strangers, but they are going to be strangers who are active and creative.

And because these fellow SW fans are doing things with their fandom, they tend to be busy folks.  So, I may end up going to an every-other week schedule.  I’m still debating that.  ---  Anyway, I have some other ideas too, but for now, these are the ones I want to share.

“So, when is the show coming back?” you ask.  Soon!  Keep checking this page for details.  I do have a show in the can now.  We didn’t end up talking about Star Wars that much, so I will probably release it under the “Bonus Content” banner this weekend.  So, keep an eye out for that.

Anyway, I just wanted to share.  Thank you for your patience, and please keep checking back!  Much appreciated!  In the mean time, follow us on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Google+ and Tumblr.  See ya shortly!
