Kind reminder -- a Micronauts animated series exists. It's awesome. Yes, I'm allowed to pat me and my team on the backs here.

Channel has 250k views. Pilot alone up to 49k views. Proof of concept more than established.

Check it out!

Amongst many other things, "I Killed Optimus Prime" is one of the all-time great autobiography titles (certainly snazzier than "I Put Duke into a Coma" would have been).

It has come to my attention that my birthday is next week, and also sometimes people enjoy sending me things? So I have put together an Amazon wish list and a Throne list which has some overlap but also some non-Amazon links to a few things.

Finally got RSS feeds going on the new YouTube channel. So far I've just got the GQuuuuuuX episodes of Superhuman Samurai Syber Pod set to Public, but I'm planning to get some of the more recent Stasis Pods and Iacon Underground Radio episodes up tonight and then slowly do the back catalog.

Look, it's very hard to Monetize or SEO Optimize or whatever when your podcast is run on the technical end by someone who is fundamentally an anarchist (again, it's Jen).

Superhuman Samurai Syber Pod Episode 28: The Witch’s War

IaconUnderground.net @iaconunderground.bsky.social · Sep 5

So hey listeners, I have a question: Do any of you listen to any of our podcasts through Spotify, and if so, are there ads? I'm not even sure if I (Jen) still have it set up properly for Spotify, because I don't care for them as a company, but I've heard bad things from some other podcasters.
