Today’s episode: Our Heroes finally reach Uth, the Last Human Village.

Just a reminder that episode 016, “Packing It In” won’t be online until the first Wednesday in January (the 6th). I’m taking December off, and I think I’ve earned it.

I decided last night that I’m going to release the next podcast episode on Wednesday (11.11.09).  A friend who specializes in Internet marketing, etc. told me that the best days for Web traffic are Tuesday through Thursday.  Makes sense. I’m curious to see if releasing an episode in the middle of the week will make much [...]

UPDATE: there was an audio goof in this episode (forgot to delete some of the additional Eira lines, d’oh), but it has been fixed. Sorry for the inconvenience. Today’s episode: Zeroth the Hunter continues his search for Steve and Uncle Shameless, and when he finds them things get nasty. In our last episode: The Hawk King’s spies, [...]

Not our regularly scheduled episode! This is a panel discussion on werewolves in popular culture.

That’s right gang, Steve, our relucant teenage hero of the podcast, now has his own Twitter account (@steveharrier).  I’ll post more than just the latest episodes there, as I plan to do tweets that go along with the store…and yes, they’ll continue even after Steve ‘arrives’ in Eyri…despite there being no cell phone service.
