You may have noticed our website was under maintenance for the past few months. We were unfortunately dealing with some backend issues. (Quite boring if you are not into that sorta thing, if you are I’m sure you probably know more than I do about it.)

The good news is the site is back up and running again!

We are still tweaking many aspects of the site! So please excuse some of the more “rough around the edges” aspects and enjoy learning more about our content.

Thanks for your patience and as always HAPPY LISTENING!

Are you ever going to record COLD FIRE and SHATTERGLASS?

Versions of this (“Why haven’t you . . .?” “Did you ever . . . ?”) are hands down the most common questions that pop up on our Facebook page these days. As to the why haven’t we, the answer is simple, and sad. We ran out of money. The 2008 economic meltdown, plus a back-stabbing by a corporate partner, hit FCA really hard. But, as I like to say, we ain’t dead yet! Tammy and I have talked many times about trying to do these. And, yes, we have discussed doing a Kickstarter if we ever do decide to tackle them. However the barrier isn’t only financial. Inertia is a factor as well. Getting projects this big into motion would take a huge amount of effort, since I no longer have a full support team in place, and we would have to gather an enormous team of actors. So for now I’m sticking to shorter projects with smaller cast. Even so, I haven’t given up on the idea of returning to the Circle World!
