Hello, Kakos Industries shareholders. My name is Conrad Miszuk, and if you believe the cover story, then I am the creator of Kakos Industries. If you don’t, then the tinfoil is working.

Kakos Industries is moving to a monthly schedule in 2017. I love this project, and I love that there are so many of you listening to it. I love seeing the comments and the artwork. This project has been a huge undertaking, and nearly three years in, I still do almost everything myself. I have no intention of stopping the production, but I have to take a bit of a step back so that I can make room for other things. Starting today, new episodes of the show will be released on, or as near as I can manage to the first of the month with no episode in the middle of the month. It is possible that sometime in the future we will be able to return to the twice monthly schedule when the project can more comfortably sustain itself, but for now, this is the way it has to be. All of the Patreon rewards will remain the same and I will still provide all of the bonus content if the goals there are attained.

Please don’t forget to take the survey over at kakosindustries.com/survey. We’re going to close it down at the end of January 2017. Please also remember to visit kakosindustries.com/patreon and sponsor a poor podcaster for less than the price of a cup of coffee a month. Maybe a fancy, double shot, extra pump frappomachiataddiction if you’re feeling generous. That way we can avoid me infringing on any of Sarah McLachlan’s intellectual property.

Thank you for listening. As always, you are 10/10 human beings and at least 5/10 as Lhasa Apsos based on the American Kennel Club’s judging criteria. Now back to your regularly scheduled announcements.
