The previews continue with Chapter 4 and 5 of the 4.5 hour epic, Disney's Living Characters: An Unsettling Reality.
As previously stated, this is the last preview that A-Tickets will be able to see. After this, only B-Tickets will be able to view previews, until the week leading up to the public release, when I might ask a few more people to review it.

Welcome to the first of many previews for our new video, Disney's Living Characters: An Unsettling Reality. This is a 4-hour follow-up to last year's animatronics video. This will be our longest video, and I have been working on it since January.
This preview of the Intro and Chapter One is being made available to all Patrons, but after Chapter Five (of the 10 total Chapters), they will only be made available to B-Tickets and up (this is subject to change).
Thank you for your pat...

2025-05-22 14:33:45 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! Hope you are well. I am working on the next Defunctland After Dark Patreon-exclusive video, and I am letting all of you pick the topic! We will someday get to all of these unless one is uniquely unpopular. I am not giving much context on what I plan to discuss in these, so just choose based off of the title. Have a great day!

A brand new Patreon-exclusive video essay, and the third addition to Defunctland After Dark. Over the past few years, television advertisements have become more surreal, mean-spirited, and purposefully confusing. In this 2-hour video essay, Kevin breaks down his top ten worst most hated commercials of 2024. If you enjoy positivity and praise, this is not the video for you. If you're a certified hater, welcome to your happy sad place. Let's take these advertisers down a peg.

Kevin and Jack free fall down the rabbit hole of World's Largest things. This episode has everything from the World's Largest Office Chair to the World's Largest Cherry Pie, and I weirdly becomes a sort of Chicken Soup for the Conspiratorial Soul.

In screenwriting, the middle of Act II, or in this case Chapter Three, is often referred to as fun and games of the promise of the premise. This 20 minutes is the reason I wanted to make this video, so I hope it's your kind of thing. Please give it a watch and let me know if there are any errors/ommissions/typos and what you thought (without using words like boring or unnecessary). If you really don't like it, it's a bit too late and maybe just hold that one in. Thank you for your support and...

2024-12-04 23:55:57 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone,
This is a rough version of Chapter One of Disney Animatronics: A Living History. This is the section I am most nervous about, so I hope you will take the time to watch it and review it. As always, the main feedback that I am looking for are typos/mispronunciations/incorrect facts/technical errors.
All of the graphics are temporary and have some glitches. The black-and-white graphics will also get a final noise and texture pass, so they will eventually look like a s...

Hello everyone. It's been a minute since a notable update on this year's big project, so this preview is going out to everyone. This is the first two minutes of the next video. While some of this will be improved, such as the music mix and some of the graphics, this is pretty much set. Hope you enjoy and that this excites you for the rest of the documentary.

Hope you are well. I am currently in the track of Hurricane Milton, although I am not in an evacuation area. I am anticipating losing power for some time and am not sure what the rest of the week will look like. I wanted to update you in case I am away for several days. When I return, we will resume our normal schedule of meetings.
I hope everyone stays safe. As always, thank you for your support. Take care.
Best,

In the second episode of Defunctland After Dark, Kevin adds what was missing from his documentary Journey to EPCOT Center: A Symphonic History... his dumb voice. In this first part, Kevin covers everything from the origins of the post-city EPCOT concept to the beginnings of EPCOT Center as we know it.

2024-09-10 21:34:47 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone. As many of you know, I am currently trying to lock down a topic for this year's end of year video that will release late November/early December. Unfortunately, it seems that Deal or No Deal will have to be delayed to next year, because I don't want to rush it. I have narrowed my selection to two ideas at the moment, and I want to hear which you like better. I cannot guarantee that the top choice or either of these will be the next video, but there is a good chance that if one w...

This is the first in a series of exclusive videos made for Patrons. Please do not share links to non-Patrons. We will have more videos to come but do not have a set schedule or frequency for them as of now. I hope you enjoy!

I know many of you are not subscribed to the Patreon for the podcast specifically, so I apologize for all of the episode posts in a row on the Patreon feed.
