Preview of What's in an OP? - Rick and Morty

so for the last, like, year I've been trying to put together an analysis video for rick and morty with a different approach from my usual style, and my editor Ezekieru just got back to me with the first pass of the intro/outro. It still needs tweaking, but I've never done anything like this before and your feedback would be really helpful in making it the best shitty parody it can be.

Something Nifty incoming

Big Update coming (and I will be doing more)

Hey everyone!

As most of you are probably aware, since fall of last year my interactions with Patreon have been pretty lacking. I can make a lot of excuses for this - first I was taking a lot of trips due to a new long-distance relationship, then I was moving, and since the move I’ve been playing catch up on making videos - but the fact of the matter is, I have let you guys down. I’m sorry, ...

Message from Yazy and I

Hey everyone. I have been crazy busy plowing through on a bunch of different videos and haven't had much time to post or interact with the patreon lately.  Yazy typed up an explanation of what's going on that she wanted to share with all of you, to explain what I've been swamped doing.

Yazy:

Patron-exclusive sneak peak at next video

 my next video, titled "Avatar is an anime, fuck you, fight me," is currently uploaded to youtube for copyright testing purposes, and I figure, what the hey, you guys will probably enjoy giving it a watch. hope this makes up, at least a bit, for how noninteractive I've been lately.

that said, please don't add the video to any playlists, tweet it, or show your friends. It's JUST for you...

Got questions/comments for geoff? YOU could be in a video!

I'm currently working on a supplementary video to tide you guys over while I work on some more analytical stuff, and I need your help with it. Sort of. The video's a commentiquette-esque response to comments on my last few videos, containing corrections for errors and other such stuff.

But I also want to answer some of your questions while I'm at it! Because I think that would be fun and I....

Why SAO is a Worse Video Game than it is an anime

Hey everyone! Sorry for the lack of posts over the last month - the trip to japan kept me preeeetty busy, and a lot of the rest of my time has been spent working on content. I know I missed putting up a video last week, but hopefully this 40 minute teardown of the game design in SAO will make up for that a bit!

also, the first patron poll for the weebcast will be going up tonight!
