IT'S BETTER TO KNOW
With the changes to the look of the site I've made today, I also want to make some other changes. I plan on posting more "stuff". I'll still keep up the Tumblr page, because that is a easy and fun, but I plan on more "stuff" here, from time to time, when I have the time. So please, book mark the page and come back often!
Here's a short film Saturday Night Live last night. It made me laugh! I hope it does for you as well.

WOULD IT HELP IF I GOT OUT AND PUSHED?
So, I've "rebooted" this site today. For a couple reasons...
Technically, the old layout was causing me problems with iTunes (I think... I could be wrong. I probably am wrong. The point is, I'm still struggling to get the show in iTunes.) For some reason I can't figure out, iTunes reads the title of the show as "Episodes", not at The Expanded Fandomverse. I think it may be because the show was on a page called "Episodes", but, I really dont know. (That said, "Episodes" would make a great title for a Star Wars podcast!)
Also, the old layout wasn't giving me everything I want. I've switched to Blogger, which isn't pretty, but it gives me all the things I want on the page.
Plus, Blogger is free (Thank You Google!). My old hosting service had a small fee. It was small, but it was still a fee, so... A penny saved is a penny earned.
And finally, it gave me something to do today with The Expanded Fandomverse. My plan for today was to post my interview with Mr. Joe Curcio. Our conversation was the second one I recorded, and was the second one I had technical issues with. Joe's part of the conversation came out fine, but I could barely be heard, if at all. My original plan was to just rerecord my half and edit it all together, but that project died a painful death as I tried to put it all together.
Thankfully, Joe has offered to rerecord his episode with me. So, this week, there wont be a new episode as planned, but as soon as we do, I'll get it up on the site.
Anyway, thanks for visiting, thanks for your patience, and please keep checking back!

EPISODE THREE - Dan White, Super Fan!
(note: I am updating the site today, but I wasn't able to import my old posts, so I have to repost them. This was originally posted on March 23rd, 2014)
This week my guest is my first guest, and also my first returning guest, but he is the third guest. Let me explain... Dan White was my first guest on the show, but due to technical issues, I couldn't use the recording. So, I had Dan back on the show, and this is that show!
Dan is an opinionated and funny fan with a critical eye towards the Star Wars Universe. I had a lot of fun talking to him, and I hope to have Dan back on in the future. Please enjoy our conversation!

Well, after a week of more technical struggles and not enough free time, I finally have the second episode of The Expanded Fandomverse up and running! Don't worry, there wont be such a wait for the third episode, it's all ready recorded and ready to go. Heck, I may even post it today! (maybe...)
Anyway, this weeks guest is Jason Collier, the winner of the title "The Ultimate Star Wars Fan" from Access Hollywood. Take a listen to learn the full story. And check out Jason's videos below.

IT IS THE FUTURE YOU SEE.

Sorry, I haven't been keeping up with events. After many technical difficulties, I FINALLY recorded and episode with ZERO technical problems! Plus, I finally figured how to set up an RSS feed for the show. And, I have submitted The Expanded Fandomverse podcast to iTunes. Just waiting for approval now.
I just wanted to share that good news and to say that you should check back tomorrow night, when I plan on having Episode Two posted. It’s a conversation with Jason Collier, a man who literally holds the title of “The Ultimate Star Wars Fan”! I also have been able to save most of my earlier talk with Joe Curcio, a vintage Kenner collector. So, fingers crossed, I will have that up and running shortly as well.
Difficult to see. Always in motion is the future. But, I do expect things to be picking up around here shortly! Stay Tuned.

EPISODE ONE - Braian & Elias from Customs For The Kid

Well, third times a charm! After three attempts, I finally got one right! I sat down with Brian & Elias, a father and son team of action figure customizers, on March 8th, 2014. They are a great pair, and we had an great conversation! - Be sure to check out their website, Customs For The Kid!
Bare with me as I get this show up and running. I have a lot to learn, technically, and about the art of the interview. What I took away from this first episode, and what I can easily fix for next time; script my opening remarks. I see now that I am not the extemporaneous speaker I thought I was. Also, I need to figure out how to get this show on iTunes and into the world, other then just sitting on this site. One thing at a time...
And dont forget, you too can be on the show! Just send me and email - TheExpandedFandomverse@gmail.com

STAY ON TARGET. ALMOST THERE...

OKay, I have finally, and completely, overcome my technical issues! Three cheers for me!
However, I was not able to save the first episode I recorded. The sound quality is just a mess! My guest, Dan White, was so great, that I have asked him to re-record the episode with me. He kindly agreed to do so. Right now, we are just trying to work out a time that will work for both of us. Fingers crossed it will be soon.
I have my second episode, with my guest Joe Curcio, done and ready to be posted. But, it's my second episode. So it has to wait.
"So what? Call it your first episode an put it out there. Come on, we wanna hear it!" you say. Well... You're right, I could do that, but... My love of continuity, plus a touch of OCD, wont allow me to do that. In my head, the second episode has to remain the second episode.
(Yes, you could argue that the rerecorded first episode is really the third episode, but... My brain is okay with that.)
Anyway, the whole point of this post is to let you know that The Expanded Fandomverse podcast is on target, and coming along along nicely behind the scenes. It's moving along slowly, but it is move along!
Thanks for your patience! Keep checking back for more updates!
