Date:    

The village of Three-Bridges finds consensus in First Snow’s plan, but Tyymos lo-Jyf – as you can imagine – objects. Ardel Redmoor makes plans to flee Castle Guernatal, but the Phantom of the Castle objects to this. Regan and Yllowyyn find Nia, along with a whole lot of trouble they weren’t looking for, and Nia tells the Party of her plight.

Chapter 6 Release Dates!

Date:    

We are pleased to announce release dates for our next chapter!

THE ONCE AND FUTURE NERD
Book 2 – Myth Made Flesh
Chapter 6 – “One For The Team”

  • Part 1 – September 22, 2019
  • Part 2 – October 6, 2019
  • Part 3 – October 20, 2019
  • Part 4 – November 3, 2019

Also, FYI – we’re going to be changing some geeky stuff under the hood so we get sorted into the right categories on Apple Podcasts. This should NOT change anything for you…UNLESS you subscribe directly through FeedBurner, Email, or our RSS feed. (If you’re not sure how you subscribe, it’s probably not like that.)

If you do subscribe that way, our new feed location will be:
http://onceandfuturenerd.com/feed/podcast

But basically all podcatching apps should adjust to the change automatically. That said, if it’s September 22 and noon (NY time) has rolled around without a new TOAFN episode popping up, let us know and we will help you sort it out!

Talk to you in September!
