#96 Jack Skip w/Mark Tufo

But before we get into it, uh, the big news of the day is the Parrot Plague, part three is done.

It's recorded.

I just gotta go back and listen to a tiny bit, fix one or two new things.

But coinciding with that is all new recordings of parts one and two, because when Mark wrote three, he didn't plan on writing a part three.

So he went back and changed a few things to make parts one and two coincide with part three so it flows nicer, and the narration is also better.

It's funny.

Um, part one, I did it, it was about 50 minutes the first time I did it, because it was only the second book...

Is it two? There's two.

[laughs]

Uh, I ever narrated as a professional voice actor.

And now that I redid it and I slowed down a little bit and with the, there's not much extra parts, but with the extra part in it, and me slowing down and doing things a little bit better, it is an hour and 20 minutes long.

So that just shows-

Wow

... how frigging fast the first one was.

[laughs]

Yeah.

[laughs]

And it drove me frigging nuts when I listened to it.

Isn't it just so Mark, having a third book, a third, a fourth, a fifth coming out, when he only planned on doing one or two or three?

I am perfectly fine with Mark doing a h- f- Zombie Fallout-ing this series-

[laughs]

... because he said when he first wrote it, "This is your, your story.

Whenever I write it, you are the narrator." Um, so, and I, it's so...

Listening back to it done the right way, the narration, it just makes it sound so much better.

It is such an awesome frigging series.
