Hey all, hope it’s going well. We’ve been staying busy during our hiatus with some writing projects and a few other secret things as well. In an attempts to keep up with the blog, I wanted to share some more unused content with you. The following is an alternate ending for the most recent Christmas Special we did. It would’ve involved Ryan, but due to time constraints, I ended up going in another direction. Enjoy! And keep your eyes peeled for more bonus content in the coming weeks!
ALTERNATE ENDING:
FADE IN:
INT.CRAWLSPACE – EVENING
Jeremy finishes reading the story, closes the book and then looks up.
Jeremy
And that’s it. Wonderful Christmas tale, wasn’t it?
A laptop on a cardboard box begins to emit sound, it’s Ryan connected via Zoom. He is also in his fallout shelter and had been listening in the whole time, unbeknownst to the audience.
Ryan
I was there during the 2021 holiday season. I literally don’t remember any of that happening.
Jeremy
It was pretty close to that. Anyways, I’ll take that lack of response to my question as a yes, you totally loved my Christmas story.
Ryan
Whatever. Now what?
Jeremy
Well, I don’t know about you, but I still haven’t seen any rats to feast on yet. How bout we record an episode.
Ryan lets out an audible sigh.
Ryan
Alright, fine. Man, when do you think we’re gonna be able to resurface?
Jeremy
I’m sure any year now the conditions will be right. Until then, at least we’ve got each other, right pal?
Ryan
Yeah, that we do.
Jeremy
Now let’s do this shit!
Jeremy straightens up and clears his throat.
Jeremy
Welcome to another episode of Media Pod Smash, live from the shelter once again, but the spirits are high, aren’t they?
Ryan
It’s that magical time of year and we aren’t about to let some “apocalyptic” outside conditions bring us down. So what’s on the agenda for today?
The camera starts to zoom out as they continue to pod.
Jeremy
Well, we’ve got some great would you rather questions and later I’ll be sharing a great recipe for rat on a stick…
