A bit of an editing backlog

You will have noticed that we are running behind in our show production schedule…

We’ve actually been busy recording shows, with three already ‘in the can’, another being recorded tonight and a further two planned for the 14th and 25th March.

The issue is with the editing. Editing is about 60-75%  of the work in producing the show, and unfortunately I have been short on time in the past couple of weeks and have fallen behind.

Episode 140 (To the Strongest) is currently in progress, and I will get everything else out as soon as I can. However, with magazine deadlines, college assignment deadlines, American Football coaching and actually trying to paint a Chain of Command force in 15mm (as well as all the usual day to day life issues) my time management skills are somewhat under pressure at the moment :-)

Hang in there everyone…shows are coming soon, honest!
