Hey everybody, happy New Year, welcome to 2019. I just want to say hi and drop a short update on this feed to let you know what I've been up to since the podcast concluded last summer.

So first of all, as many of you already know, I just launched my next podcast project, the Water Margin

podcast, where we are essentially doing the same thing we did on this podcast, but with the novel,

the Water Margin, which is also referred to as Outlaws of the Marsh. So if you haven't yet,

go check out that new podcast at Outlaws of the Marsh.com.

It's also already on iTunes, Stitcher, YouTube, and the other major podcast platforms. So go check it out.

Before I got all wrapped up in launching that podcast, I spent the past six months or so, ensuring that my work

on the Three Kingdoms podcast will survive should something calamitous happen to this website.

Not that I'm planning on anything happening to it. One of the things I've done is to upload

all the audio files to the internet Archive, which is about as permanent

as something on the Internet can be. I have included a link to that collection with the notes

for this update on the website. Go check it out there if you want. You'll notice that the

order of the files are kind of scramble right now. Reordering things on the Internet Archive is apparently a huge pain,

so I was only able to make partial progress on that

before having to shift my attention to the Water Margin Podcast.

I might get back to it at a later date, but, right now, it's about as good as it's going to get.

Another thing I've been doing is going back and re-recording some of the earlier episodes of

the Three Kingdoms podcast to improve their quality. I've done this for just the first three

episodes so far, and I have a couple more recorded that I have yet to edit, but my plan

is to do one or two here and there going forward. Of course, now that I'm immersed in producing

the Water Margin podcast, that work will be pretty sporadic and slow going. Finally, I want to mention

a neat little discovery I made. Last spring, somebody at the Phoebe A.
