An Update on the Next Episode

tl;dr: It's taking a little longer because it's going to be HUGE.

So when I started digging into this subject, I didn't realize just how deep the rabbit hole went. My writing process has become pretty arduous; I've gotten into the habit of looking directly at the source material whenever I'm writing a sentence that references it, rather than relying on notes to help reduce errors. The bright side to this is that, while I'm writing, I sometimes stumble across more information I missed the first time around. In this case, I found WAY more.

So far, it's looking to be TWICE as long as a typical episode, maybe longer. For reference, the DarksydePhil script wasn't quite 7 pages long and just had a few video clips. This new script is closer to 10 pages long and has 6 times as much space dedicated to source video and audio material. In short: it's going to be big. Really big. It's also probably the most information-dense episode so far.

My runtime estimate right now places it somewhere between 45 minutes and 1 hour.

I don't want to reveal the topic just yet, but I will say that it's been requested a fair bit. Personally, it reminds me a lot of Chris-Chan and Sonichu in the way that people interacted with it and the delusion involved with it.

Once I'm done writing this post, I'm going to make myself a cup of tea and perform the final edits on the script before I start recording the narration, though I may take tomorrow to record as well, if I need to. Next week, the video editing begins. I really appreciate everyone's patience on this, I think it will be worth it.
