BONUS - 10 Things About... Thundarr the Barbarian
The Saturday Morning Podcast
04/12/23 • 13 min
10 THINGS ABOUT... Thundarr the Barbarian
At the start of the podcast, I had a Patreon to connect with fans. And boy did I connect! Four days after the first episode dropped, I had a patron! And then I was hit in the face with the fact I had to create something to give. Let this be a lesson: Never operate without a plan!
After creating the first few episodes, I had material I couldn’t fit into the story. Thus was born 10 THINGS ABOUT... that further explored the previous episode in even more detail. It was a companion series for patrons only.
But now it’s time to give it away. Here now is a look at THUNDARR THE BARBARIAN!
For a refresher course on THUNDARR THE BARBARIAN, go back and listen to the original episode here:
https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s01e01-thundarr-the-barbarian/id1513752663?i=1000477054589
Until next time, thanks for ‘tooning in!
PLEASE NOTE: This is from the early days of the podcast and things like music, delivery and a billion other things may be a little different.
