The Next Season of Retronauts is Coming Soon! (But We Still Need Your Help)
Hey folks, Bob here with an important announcement. We've been on break since late August, and in the passing months, you've probably been wondering just what the heck we've been up to. Well, this new episode spills each and every bean, but if you're too impatient to hear us jabber on about the next year of Retronauts, I'll break down the details below:
- We're now partnering with USgamer, where Jeremy and I work. They won't be funding the podcast, though—it's more of a reciprocal deal in which we'll grow the audience of both properties in synergistic harmony.
- Volume IV (or whatever we'll be calling it) begins on Monday, December 1st, with episodes to follow biweekly—that's every two weeks. But if we get enough funding, we'll be doing bite-sized episodes during the off weeks.
- The most important thing: This new season of show will be supported by our new Patreon, which includes plenty of physical rewards as incentives. If you can spare just a few bucks a month to help out, we'd really appreciate it! (Here's that link again...) And, if you donate, you'll get early access to all of our new episodes.
- A good deal of this money will go towards funding trips so Jeremy can record live in our studio instead of remotely. We made Skype work as best as we could, but we realize that having everyone in one location results in better shows.
- If you donated to last year's Kickstarter and are still waiting for your rewards, don't worry—we're working on them! (That includes episode requests for contest winners and donors, BTW.)
Aaand that's it! We're extremely grateful for any kind of support, and if you can't spare a little scratch every month, spreading the word about our Patreon and upcoming season would be appreciated. As always, be sure to follow our Twitter and Facebook accounts for all of the latest news about the podcast. And please bookmark USgamer, because we'll be writing plenty of stuff about retro games over there—and we really want the site to keep on keepin' on. Thanks again for all of your support over the years, and we'll see you again on December 1st!
