Y'all I got some great feedback about this episode. I left my audience craving more, ended on a pretty good cliffhanger, and overall feel like this is where the podcast really gets going. I eased everyone in on the first couple of episodes because of how intense this series is gonna get, but it may have been a mistake because the metrics are suffering.
The second part of this episode, Episode 4, will come out on Christmas Eve. I won't lie to you, my hooks from episode to episode in this stretch of season 1 are intense, so episode 4 is gonna leave you wanting episode 5, but I really think it's worth it. I'm quite a bit ahead, working episodes 8-10 this week. It does just keep improving and other characters keep getting more air time as they're available for recording. It's a fun project and we're gonna put out this first season regardless, but I'd love for you to give it a good fair chance. It's scary, funny, nerdy, and I think it captures a very unique but approachable vibe that a lot of folks can find entertaining. If you like sci-fi, you're gonna really really love this. If you like horror too, even more so. If you like a show that leaves you asking a lot of questions while slowly feeding you various clues as to the answers. I really think it's gonna grow on you. If not immediately hook you in these first three episodes. I'm also planning to seek out some local audio drama folks and connect to learn about local festivals, competitions, etc to gain some feedback as well. While we're doing those slower irl things, we're spreading the word here online. So hi. Thank you for reading this and checking out The Void Bulletin, online person!
And if you like it, following the show on Spotify would be huge towards contributing. Like if we make a little money on the side from this, and recover some costs, cool. But mostly we just want people to enjoy it. And that means fighting algorithms and AI slop and all kinds of stuff.
