We Got Spanked!
It turns out Fireball XL5 is copyrighted! Whenever the episodes were posted on our YouTube channel there is a notification that the any monetization goes to "another party". Big deal we aren't monetized yet anyway. However, if we do a live stream of the show YouTube has no way to distribute any funds to the rightful owners. Doing so, got us a verbal spanking from YouTube. If we do it again we get a ban. Suffice to say we wont be streaming to YouTube unless the programming is 100% in the Public Domain.

We're Moving to Saturdays Only
We are making a programming change for 2022. We will no longer be streaming on Thursdays. We will continue to present the Special Shorts, but they will happen once or twice a month on Saturday. Since Mr. Melonsauce works evenings he cannot make it on Thursdays. Steve had missed a couple; one due to traffic and another because of explosive diarrhea. Smappie has a side hustle he can focus on. Steve and Erock are going to use their spare time to work on another Groovy Moovy project. More on that soon...

It Happened!
I did it! I managed a twelve hour live streaming marathon! Of course, there was a massive SNAFU midway through and YouTube popped me with a first-time copyright strike [for using public domain content]. [TL/DR version - it happened, but not without headaches]

T-Day is Here!
What a better way to celebrate Thanksgiving than to have a marathon?! The plan so far, pending no catastrophic disasters, is to have a marathon of a few of our favorite streams- both shorts and features- running back to back. Join Steve live as he spends many hours in front of the camera presenting Groovy Moovy Gang episodes while trying to make a full Thanksgiving dinner. Then at 7:00 pm, he'll play a new pre-recorded short episode titled "A Day of Thanksgiving" with the rest of the gang.

New Stuff
The recent hiatus has not only given the rest of the gang a well-earned respite, but it has allowed me to make some improvements to the production. There was a long list of repairs, additions, refinements and more. I took the entire weekend and addressed as many as I could. Though it took over forty hours of work, the end result will not have changed much at all for the viewer. Except for...

We're [Almost] Back!
None of our big plans worked! It wasn't because we were to dumb to do it. It was the schedule of personal events that stood in the way. More to the point, the plans of Steve and Smappie ruined everything. But we will be back- with normal programming- on Thursday November 11th at 7:00 pm CST. The shorts will be something simple to get us back into the swing of things. The shorts will be all about synthetic fibers. Hold on to your hats folks!

The Gang is Taking a Break
We had originally planned some big plans. None of them worked. They may work, but we doubt it. No one knows what's going on. Smappie is flying to St. Louis. He and Steve are going to a reunion party. The flight and party happen on stream days. However, we may try and do something. We doubt it'll happen. After that, Steve has scheduled some maintenance during the break. He's looking to revamp the streaming setup to make for a better and more efficient stream. Maybe he'll make fewer mistakes?! We don't know which moovies will be featured then, but updates will be made here on the site and social media outlets. Be safe and groovy for the holidays.
"Settle down, Ricardo!"
