Hi everyone!



Episode 8 of Unnecessary Tackle-Cast will be our World Cup Special! Mel and I will be doing our normal updates for the Wimbly Womblys and a brief check-in at AFC Wimbledon before we prattle on about Brazil 2014.

There will be USMNT homerism. There will be pre-emptive mourning for England. There will be discussion about the social and political issues around the World Cup in Brazil and how it relates to Nerdfighteria’s commitment to decreasing worldsuck. There will be squees. There will be whingeing. There will be feels. It’ll be great.



We want to release this as close to the start of the tournament as we can. As such, we’re pushing back the release schedule by a week. Look for Episode 8 to come out on or around June 10th.

Also, our TSWGO fundraiser continues! We still have a little way to go before we hit our target, so please consider making a donation to This Star Won’t Go Out. As soon as we can rustle at least $100 in donations, we’ll release our super secret Outtakes episode.



Once you make a donation to This Star Won’t Go Out (again, do not send us money, make your donation directly to TSWGO), send us an email with proof of your donation. Here’s an example of what that proof can look like:





Be sure to black out (or not include) any personal info. We’ll jot down the donation amount and add it to the running tally. Once we hit $100, we’ll release the episode!

Thanks again for donating and for listening to UTC. You guys are, as Mel would say, the Caterpillar’s Boots.



DFTBA!
