State of the Studio #41: January '13

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

The studio is on vacation at the moment... and it sure feels good. 

Season 4 of The Collective Brain podcast wrapped up on December 13, 2012.  Season 5 has a tentative start date in late February.

Following the end of season 4 came the 2012 Christmas Special, a live recording the guys made during a Christmas pizza party at work.  They also recorded a Christmas Special episode of The Aftertaste Report that same night.

Bonus episodes of the Collective Brain will air from time to time between the two seasons.  The first of those was released last week. 

And finally, a new video series started last month with episode 1 of The Squatchy Adventures.  The audio was taken from Brain Theatre segments of their podcast and animated.  Episode 2 is in production now.

And what can we expect from the studio in 2013?  Another CD, this time featuring all the Brain Theatre segments from season 3 of the podcast.  Hopefully seasons 5 and 6 of The Collective Brain.  Possibly new seasons of The Aftertaste Report and Space & Beyond.  And maybe even a new podcast altogether. 

What about a new Mune Mud album?  Prolly not.  These reports will now be quarterly instead of every two months, so see you on April 1!!!
