Production Update - June 14

I recorded four episodes today. That's the most I've ever recorded in a single day, and I'm extremely happy about it! I've been running pretty much one week ahead for a while now, and I'm hoping to build up a little buffer. Of course, every time I do, something happens to whittle away that buffer.

I recorded episodes 41 and 42 of Season 2 plus two shorter episodes that I'll be using as bonus content. Should I have recorded episodes 43 and 44 instead of the bonus eps? Maybe, but I also needed a break after a couple mentally taxing episodes. 

I'm really proud of the Crest and Season 2, but it is a lot more mental work than Season 1 was. Partially, I think that's because I'm using a world I've been telling stories in for a decade, so I've got a lot of mental baggage that needs sifting through, and I also think that part of the struggle comes from balancing Mythic with SCUP. I don't mind SCUP, but it's clunky compared to the smooth-as-butter experience of playing Starforged. 

So, I played a couple short sessions of Starforged as a palate cleanser, and let me tell you, it was exactly what I needed! I probably have one or two more sessions to record before I finish the self-contained arc with this particular character, so it'll probably be a little longer before I release those, but it felt like coming home slipping into Starforged once again.

Now I may go play video games because otherwise I'll force myself to edit for the next two hours. Productive, yes, but not helpful for solidifying the mush that is my brain after all that recording. 

Cheers!
