Just crossed 1,400 downloads! I feel terrible for having to delay the season one finale, but that’s probably more people than I’ve met IRL and I’m honored and humbled that so many of you have given my show a chance 🌈

Today was supposed to be the premiere date of The Irregulars: Shadow Over Innsmouth (part two) 😔 unfortunately my voice is still giving me trouble and I haven’t been able to record any more, but I’ve finished the last of my guest lines so at least I can edit those together

Public Domain Cinematic Universe podcast @pdcu.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

For the last two days I’ve been too hoarse to record any new lines, and I’ve already edited all of the available audio, so work on Part Two has ground to a halt. In all likelihood, I won’t be able to hit the planned September 26th release date 😔

During the Shadow Over Innsmouth episode, I mentioned that Ted Kord would have a new costume, and that I’d be posting it on my socials. First one is his original suit (based on his appearance in the Charlton Comics) and the second one is my own design!

I’m curious, how many of you were surprised when Galatea showed up in Shadow Over Innsmouth? I didn’t announce her appearance ahead of time and wanted it to be an exciting way to close out part one

Well dang, should’ve just memed it in the first place

An illustration by Gustave Dore for Dante’s Divine Comedy that shows two silhouetted figures standing on a tall summit gazing up at a great celestial conflagration of souls in heaven. Text reads “We already had free art for people who are broke or bad at designing things. It’s called the PUBLIC DOMAIN”

In ONE WEEK, the heroes of the Public Domain Cinematic Universe cross paths for the very first time. Will the combined might of Tarzan, Don Quixote, Robin Hood, and Blue Beetle be enough to survive a town full of subhuman fish monsters? Only one way to find out…

Shadow Over Innsmouth (part one) will hopefully release in nineteen days. If the PDCU can get 1,000 total downloads by then, I’ll reveal the title and premise of first episode of Phase Two. Otherwise, you’ll have to wait until October or November, probably! Start pumping those numbers!

Public Domain Cinematic Universe podcast @pdcu.bsky.social · 10/08/2026

In the last week I’ve finally figured out the plots of two pitches that have been evading me for the better part of six months. Phase Two won’t be coming for quite a while, but when it does? WHEW

Those who have listened to The Exquisite Corpse will know that we had tentatively cast Will Poulter as the PDCU version of Dr. Frankenstein. Well, we were talking the other day and came up with the perfect actor for the job. Just bear with us- you’ll see him again sometime in Phase Two!

For those who have listened to The Beetle: Cult of the Dragon, this is how I pictured the headless dragon statue. I drew it in January when the story was first taking shape, which means this is probably the first-ever piece of PDCU “concept art”

Public Domain Cinematic Universe podcast @pdcu.bsky.social · 08/07/2026

Okay gang, I just found out that a long-distance friend is visiting PA for a couple of days next week so the crossover episode is now officially going to be delayed. It’s probably for the best- I’ve been overworked for a very long time and I can feel myself approaching the point of burnout.

Public Domain Cinematic Universe podcast @pdcu.bsky.social · 04/07/2026

Those who have listened to Blue Beetle: Cult of the Dragon already know that the big crossover episode will be titled “The Irregulars: Shadow Over Innsmouth”, and it will feature the protagonists of all of my previous scripted episodes. But that leaves plenty of room for interpretation…

Wasn’t able to record on Sunday because of Father’s Day, wasn’t able to record on Monday because of rain, now I can’t record today because my neighbors are doing construction 😭😭😭 I have FOUR DAYS to finish the Blue Beetle episode and I haven’t even begun to record Act Three!

Public Domain Cinematic Universe podcast @pdcu.bsky.social · 13/06/2026

Can’t post the title for spoiler reasons but I just finished the first pass of the crossover episode script! I gotta do like two more passes but even in its rawest and least refined form it’s still fun as hell 💯

Wait a minute. If The Backrooms is based on an anonymous 4chan post, it’s not under any kind of copyright… and is therefore in the public domain? I could use The Backrooms in the PDCU?? Interesting….

Public Domain Cinematic Universe podcast @pdcu.bsky.social · 02/06/2026

The Beetle: Cult of the Dragon will be the final solo pitch of Phase One, and the script will hopefully be done by the weekend! In the meantime, here’s the finalized cast list. William Jackson Harper will be playing Ted Kord, AKA the Blue Beetle! The rest are a secret (but feel free to guess!)

I have a tendency to get carried away when planning stories. I’ll plot stuff out years in advance before I’m done the first issue. So for the PDCU, I intentionally went in without a plan. When I announced Phase One, I knew there would be a crossover, but I didn’t know how or why.

Public Domain Cinematic Universe podcast @pdcu.bsky.social · 19/05/2026

Broke ground on the script for the Phase One crossover today. Not going to spoil anything but I was able to incorporate a certain 👵🏻🏀 in a really organic way….

Not only did I finish recording the second act of Robin Hood & Little John today, I also hit 500+ downloads! I can’t even count that high! Huge, huge thanks to everyone who’s been tuning in and recommending the show. Someday, the armies of PDCU fans will blot out the horizon 🫶🏻

I genuinely don’t consider myself much of an impressionist (barring the two comedians I voiced in El Don: Origins) but I keep casting actors with extremely specific voices and making things harder on myself. Now I have to figure out a passable Ralph Ineson voice for Robin Hood & Little John 😔

The Frankenstein pitch is the first time I’ve recorded without reading off of a script and I use “like” as an interjection SO MUCH. I sound like a valley girl. I’ve got to be killed.

Not only is El Don: Origins available to listen to as of today, but I also recorded the Frankenstein guest pitch with friend of the show Chris Filipowicz! He laid down the skeleton, we pieced together the story, and the end result was creatively electrifying!

After an extremely chaotic month full of starts and stops, the second episode of the PDCU is out on April 25th! In it, I have finally and conclusively answered the age-old question “What if Don Quixote was a commentary about the state of Big Two superhero comics in 2026?”

God, I had such a blast recording with the HTDWSMIT crew. I try and keep a pretty even tone with the PDCU episodes so it was nice to cut loose and get silly. Tune in tomorrow for high-quality goofs and gaffs 🕷️🕵🏻

Started working on the Robin Hood script. There’s a heist scene in Act One and it was a huge pain in the dick to write. Not only because I was basically making it up in real time, but because I used to be a professional locksmith and it drives me nuts when heist movies aren’t realistic.
