I've got one new show in the planning stages right now, that I'm hoping to get off the ground and on the Interwebz by the end of the month. It'll be quite a bit like my run as host of ACR, but without the Althanas content--y'know, just myself, Megan, and Paul chatting about books, movies, video games, Internet things, etc. (No wrasslin', probably.)

But I'm also having idea for a second show on top of this, and I would need the help of several others. Basically, I was thinking of doing a sort of... fantasy improv show, is the best way I could think to describe it. All of the participants would develop characters that would be on the level of semi-important NPCs in any given Althy thread, campaign, or RPG. Characters that could've been the damn hero of the story had things been rolled a little differently, but are instead relegated to small supporting roles. Characters who live interesting enough lives on their own, and are relatively involved in the world around them; but their chances of striking out on their own and saving said world by means of an epic quest are slim to none.

See where I'm going with this?

The characters would basically gather in your typical fantasy setting to swap stories about their own lives and those of others they've encountered and such. A lot of it would very much be improvisational, with a couple bits of pre-planning beforehand, I suspect.

Would anyone possibly be interested in doing something like this in the future?

Yes. YES. I mean, like YES.

Really yes. Would be totally cool. I started something like this with my creative writing group at Uni. It worked so well.
