Nope, no dice, not a chance. I’m not saying a thing about this issue. Why? Well, if I did, that would render the title moot. You’ll just have to download it and find out. And while you’re at it, go ahead and download this little beauty right here. If nothing else, it’ll give you some insight into this session.

Josh’s latest project for Hex Games is finally done and ready for your enjoyment!

Leopard Women of Venus is a QAGS supplemet co-written by MTMJ’s  own Josh Burnett with Leighton (Laser Ponies) Connor and illustrated by the same along with Linday (A Friendly Game) Honsby. LWoV explores the bizarre worlds of Golden Age comic creator Fletcher Hanks.

Here’s how the official press release describes the game:

Venus is a hellish nightmare world of hideous monsters and savage barbarians, a world that can only be tamed by the Leopard Women. Armed with comet gun helmets, radium whips, and Flying Saurian mounts, the Leopard Women stand between the human settlers of Venus and total annihilation.

Leopard Women of Venus is a mind-melting pulp science fiction role-playing game inspired by the works of Fletcher Hanks. Hanks wrote and drew bizarre and memorable work in the earliest days of American comic books. His work is boldly drawn, frequently ugly, and strangely fascinating. Leopard Women of Venus gives you the tools you need to recreate the magic and lunacy of a Fletcher Hanks comic with your gaming group.

Check it out, gang. I hope you enjoy it!

That’s right, friends, hot on the heels of Issue #12 comes Issue #13. It’s our eighth session of Zorcerer of Zo. The dust is settling on the drama of the last couple sessions, but by no means does that mean things have settled down for Princess Zephyr and her companions. On the contrary, we may be seeing signs and portents of darker things to come. Who can say? (Well, okay, we know who can say, but he ain’t sayin’ nothin… unless we can find a way to coerce him or trick him into revealing something … but that’s what the forum discussions are for.)

Cast:
JOSH: GM
BLINDGEEK: “Connecticut” Jarrod Stanwick
CHRIS: Thomas Quinn, the Big Ol’ Grumpy Talking Bear
NIKKI: Princess Zephyr
PAT: Webster the Low Spi Der (See issue)

Enjoy.

Once again, I have to say: Better late than never. I appreciate your patience, and hopefully, I’ll be caught up in time to post MTMJ#13 by its Monday deadline. Heads up, though; Saturday is usually a prime editing day for me, and my Saturday is pretty solidly booked, so odds are that MTMJ#13 will be a bit late as well.

But enough excuses about my lack of punctuality; we have a whopper of an issue for you this time! It’s a feedback show! It’s an episode! It’s a feedback show! It’s an episode! Wait … IT’S A FEEDBACK SHOW *AND* AN EPISODE!!!!! Yes, that’s right, friends, we’ve combined two great tastes that taste great together–a feedback show from last week, and the Jetpack Flashback you were expecting–Funkadelic Frankenstein on the Mean Streets of Monstertown #3.

We rejoin our heroes from the Prometheus Jones Detective Agency, still looking for leads so they can rid Monstertown of a ring of drug dealers responsible for spreading a dangerous narcotic through the streets of their fair city. The funk will fly in this thrilling installment you don’t want to miss!

Cast:
JOSH: GM
BLINDGEEK: Prometheus Jones, the Funky Frank himself
CHRIS: Jerome, Vampire Extraordinaire
NIKKI: Bridey Steinenfrank, Monstertown’s most radiant wrestler
PAT: Betty, the Deep One whose amazing looks are only matched by her fashion sense.

Hi, gang. Here we are again, with another fun-filled issue! This time, we resume right where we left off at the end of ISsue #10, with Princess Zephyr, Thomas Quinn, Hickory and Jarrod Stanwick trying to determine the fate of Dickory. To say more would be to spoil things, so I shan’t.

Due to your Friendly Neighborhood Podcast Editor trying to make a shortcut in adding vocal effects such as reverb, some of the reverb in this issue is … well … overdone. You’ll know it when you hear it. I caught the fact that it wasn’t working and adapted, but I was not able to go back and change the stuff I’d already done. I only mention it to avoid the feedback alerting me to the fact that would no doubt flood our forums if I *hadn’t* mentioned it. I love constructive criticism, but I”m already aware of it. My apologies. Don’t worry, the dialog is understandable; it’s just more like they’re in a weird dreamscape than a cathedral. My bad. And as I said, it does get worked out.

Enough reading. Time to listen. Enjoy!

So here’s the thing: We all sat down as a group and said, “Hmmm … we ended last time on such a great high of listener adrenaline … what could we do this week to really piss them off?” The answer? Make ‘em wait another week for the resolution of the cliffhanger. Bwahahahahahaaaaah!!

No, seriously, it was not a planned thing. I was out of town and thought I’d have easy internet access in the apartment I was utilizing. As it turned out, the internet was down until the final day of my stay … but I thought it was a problem on my end. God love this group of wonderful people I’ve come to know and call dear friends, they tried to get me connected, even checking to see if they had any Skype credits to call my cell phone, but such was not to be. So it was decided to just do a feedback show and call it a day.

Rest assured, though, the Zo story will resume next week with Issue #11.

What’s that you say? You want to actually *download* the feedback show? Oh! Silly me! Sorry. Grab it here.

In a bit of a hurry, so I’m dashing this off. Apologies for the abruptness, especially on our first double-digit issue, but I really want to get this posted before I leave for my band’s gig. Anyway, it’s our 10th issue, it’s more Zo, and if you all enjoy it a tenth as much as we enjoyed playing it, then all is right with the world.

JOSH: GM
BLINDGEEK: Jarrod Stanwick
CHRIS: Thomas Quinn, the Big Ol’ Grumpy Talking Bear
NIKKI: Princess Zephyr
PAT: Hickory & Dickory

I know, I know, I could just type Thomas Quinn, but I kinda love the fact that he has that title attached to his name.

And if you dug the ambient music heard in the background of the scenes in the bar, you owe it to yourself and your gaming group to check out Sonic Legends, particularly a track called Prosperous Tavern. These tracks can take your physical tabletop games to the next level, and are very highly recommended.

Well, here’s where we test the dedication of our fans, because if you can listen to this issue and make it to the end without screaming or breaking something due to sheer frustration, you deserve a medal for bravery, to say nothing of the respect and admiration of all of us. Due to a SNAFU involving Audio Hijack Pro, a re-install, and a forgetful (or at the very least, nonthinking) BlindGeek, all but the first ten minutes of this issue were overlaid with static and white noise. Despite attempts to clean it up, it still left us with a barely-listenable game session. I almost didn’t post it at all, but it contained a lot of feedback that deserved to be heard, and a new character was introduced. It’s a great session, if you can overlook the horrible audio quality.

Too disgusted with it to care. LOL Trust me, folks, we’ll be back up to speed for Issue #10. This was just one of those “Aw, crap!” moments in life. Ya just gotta slog through it and move on. My apologies.

Holy crap, the wait is over! It’s finally here!!! Our second session of Funkadelic Frankenstein on the Mean Streets of Monstertown. It’s late in coming, but I hope you find it worth the wait.

Our search for the dealers in the monster-drug Shade continues, and as seems to always be the case with the Prometheus Jones Detective Agency, mayhem and chaos follow in our footsteps, you dig? Enjoy, and as always, we look forward to your comments on this blog, and on the forums as well.

CAST:

BLINDGEEK: Prometheus Jones, the Funkadelic Frankenstein

Show notes forthcoming. I just want to get this posted.

Hello, everyone. Just thought I’d take a moment to let you know that there will indeed be a new MTMJ this week. I know, I know, I’m late. I thought it might be ready on Sunday, and then I thought it might be ready on Monday, and now it’s Tuesday, and I’m still working on it. But it’s going to be posted, either tonight or tomorrow. I apologize. It’s been my goal to keep this podcast coming out on a consistent date, and I’ll continue to strive toward that goal overall. Alas, my wife’s back has come on dreadfully cranky, and took a sudden turn from cranky to downright pissed off on Saturday, so I’ve been taking care of her and going with her to hospital and such. Unfortunately, when things go as planned, Saturday is a huge editing day for me. I got next to none done this past Saturday, and it’s kind of snowballed. Rest assured, though, that I’m not slacking off in my duties; I just need to accept the fact that I may not be able to be spot-on with my scheduled releases all the time. Due to the nature of this podcast, and the fact that I enjoy the “current” aspect of our podcast, we don’t have the luxury of getting back-episodes ready. Kinda sucks, but that’s the way the dice roll.

Anyway, I appreciate your patience and understanding while I try to play catchup. I’ll get MTMJ#8 out as soon as possible. Promise.
