Catching Up: New Releases and More
(source: starwarsfanworks.com, 03-06-07)

It has been a pretty hectic time around the Fanworks camp lately, so we thought we'd take a moment to pause and bring you up to date on several recent events, all in one quick, easy-to-digest newsbyte.

First, outside of the regular podcast releases (weekly, bi-weekly, etc.) that we track without special comments (since they are so frequent and regular), we have seen a few new releases in the last few days, including: RoneyZone Radio #47 (a trip to Disneyworld with Jeff and Colleen Roney); Requiem of the Outcast #35 (entitled Done the Impossible); and, if you can believe it, a brand new episode of the thought-cancelled Tatooine TV.

This new episode of Tatooine TV is the first Tatooine TV Live experiement, carried out as a live episode on TalkShoe. It features a call-in segment with a well-acted parody of Britney Spears. It seems that TTV lives again.

Fans of Requiem of the Outcast should also note that the team made a special appearance on the Slice of Sci-Fi podcast recently, and Earl Newton has just premiered his new cutting-edge internet TV series, Stranger Things, with a special episode based on a short story by author Scott Sigler (EarthCore, Ancestor). One should also note that the episode number above is not an error. ROTO #35 has arrived, but ROTO #34 had technical difficulties that have kept it from circulation thus far.

Also, in the podcasting field but not fan audio, StarWars.com has recently premiered a new official Star Wars Podcast Special, available to all visitors to StarWars.com (unlike the members-only Hyperspace AudioCast). As with the AudioCast, we will keep track of runtimes and topics for the (presumably) ongoing podcast series.
