Episode 666 Coming Soon

Episode 666 is insane. It is 3 hours and 32 33 minutes long. I am still working on post-production. I will try and release it by Tuesday or Wednesday. The daily shows will be stopping for now.

In other news, I made major progress in the “secret project” this weekend. I am over 50% done with the first one of it. But the release is still a few weeks away.

Next Episode Coming Monday

I’ve been releasing the 24-minute shows 7 days a week for awhile now, but I am going to change to 5 days a week (at least for the near future). The show is still officially in the “Completely Unlimited Format”, and I still consider the daily shows “experimental”. Once the “secret project” is revealed (hopefully within the next few weeks) I will try and settle on a new format for The Overnightscape.

The Overnightscape Audio Totals Graph

………………..
I’ve been doing The Overnightscape since March 2003. By the end of last month, October 2007, I had done 649 shows totaling 512 hours and 38 minutes of audio. This graph shows how much audio was released on a month by month basis. As you can see, even though the show has gone through a bunch of different “formats”, the output of audio content has been fairly consistent over the years.
