If you know us, you know we love a good Spooktacular, which is why this year we really committed to the bit of renaming the pod Ear Tickler. You’ve been had! We are so sorry. This was our April Fools Spooktacular and it went Spooktacularly. This has gone on too long. We had more planned for it but life got in the way. The pod is not going to be called Ear Tickler at all, but instead, FUDGECAST.

Why FUDGECAST? Well, FUDGE was our original name pre-pandemic and we plan on doing live shows under the name FUDGE again, so we want to tie it all in under one Umbrella. FUDGECAST, FUDGE, FUDGE & Friends etc. All Fudge, all the time.

Now that we’ve underwhelmingly blown your mind, an important message specifically from Tim!

Thanks so much for supporting the podand providing us with some of the funniest damn ideas to improvise too. We truly love doing the pod for you!

At the start of the year, Dan took another hiatus to work on his show and raise a family and our editor and producer Matthew decided to step away to work a new job and make a cross country move. Damian works a full 9-5 which has just left me to schedule, record, edit, produce, and promote the podcast. I did the same thing last year when they stepped away but it’s becoming a bit overwhelming as time goes on.

I genuinely love producing the pod, but I need to find a way to keep it sustainable and fun, so my actual performance on the pod doesn’t suffer. So I’ve cleared it with the boys and we’re going to go down to one episode a week (for now) that will live exclusively behind the Patreon wall (with a teaser on the main feed similar to shows like Mandog Pod). We’ve really enjoyed the in person episodes and the energy feels so much better when you’re in the room with other performers, so the plan is to do a lot more in person recordings and have those be our main episodes, perhaps filling them with more scenes and scene requests over longer conversations. That’s where we shine anyway, our takes aren’t hot enough to be a talking heads pod.

The timeline for this is looking like the end of April to start this more slowed down summer. My hope is that this will actually free us up for more live shows, Q&A’s, and other interesting bonus content, but I don’t want to over promise just yet. Just want to give full transparency on where my head is at.

So that’s it! FUDGECAST is a go, but scaled back slightly to accommodate my mental health, which I personally love. Hopefully in the future we can remedy that and pump out more of the good improv slop you love!

Yours in pervertedness,

-Tim, Damian, and Dan
