Relaunching



     As you can see, we have updated the blog. We've changed the appearance and theme to correspond with the stories soon to come on our audio shows. Da Scrappy Chihuahua Podcast is still moving forward. 


     Last November an unfortunate event occurred. The podcast author's home was broken into and his laptop was taken. That wasn't the worst of it. The external hard drive which had all the podcast files on it was taken as well. And no, he can't afford Lifelock every month. 

     So with the help of one of the crew, a computer and some memory devices are being put to work as we have begun to relaunch the show. Where is it going after Mafia Wars? 

     During the Skype meetings over the 3 years, other non-MW related ideas came up. These were stories and ideas we thought we would like to try to portray radio-style. It's funny how God works. If the materials hadn't been stolen we might still be trying to grind out stories pertaining to a game fewer and fewer people play and would be familiar with. 

     So it seemed like that would-be agitating event (well, honestly it was agitating) was a good place to re-position ourselves and shift into a new direction. What should you expect? Well, we still have a script called "Little Red Riding Clem". It's not what you would expect.

     Scrappy, Sasha, Granite, Clementine and Pepper will tell bedtime stories to puppies and kittens in a foster home (the city pound) about the Pilgrims coming to America. They'll take the kids and sometimes other people to other periods and show them first hand how certain events in history took place.  

     A lot of research and study is going into these stories to tell them as accurately as possible. And unfortunately, some of the things being learned are not what we'd like to tell but the facts are there. If they are not told, then how would people know about them? We would be irresponsible to ignore them.

     We hope you'll enjoy the stories coming soon. We're not sure exactly when they'll be available yet. A few scripts are written and rehearsals should begin this weekend, so hopefully you can hear them in late February or by March. Thanks for sticking with us, o ye faithful. See you then!
