SR is about humans being human no matter when, where, or who they are, and that very thing is being actively exemplified right now, worldwide.
Humans are brilliant. They are clever, resilient, adaptable, and kind. There is a future to look forward to, and that future is human.

[Starhopper Radio Podcast @StarhopperRadio]

I'm currently in the position of having to rewrite every existing script for SR, including the ones that’ve already been produced, because of major worldbuilding changes. Future SR content is sadly a long way off as of now. I’ll update when production is ready to resume.
Cheers!

In light of the current situation, and the fact that it’s been over a year since the last episode, I feel now is the time to work on producing more Starhopper Radio content, and not only because we’re all holed up inside by ourselves.

Hello again, twitterverse. It’s been a while, hasn’t it?
These are unprecedented times, to be sure. Many of us are locked away, all sense of normalcy demolished. Many of us are afraid.
But don’t lose hope.
Humanity’s defining trait is that of perseverance.
Hold on.
We’ll be okay.

minor update on my glacial but determined quest to eventually produce more SR:

in defiance of the laws of physics, I have managed to macgyver the space beneath my dorm bed into a makeshift recording studio.
yes, my mic is upside-down and yes, the main soundproofing is a bathmat.

[Starhopper Radio Podcast @StarhopperRadio]

this is my third pass at sorting out the canon timeline and the machinations of the celestial sphere have forced my hand. there will, in fact, be a tiny update to the Prologue very soon. I didn’t want to have to do this, but the heavens shift their clockwork for no man...

In the meantime, if you’re really craving hard sci-fi content, the Diaspora @WorldAnvil page has been updating fairly steadily! As a supplement to the podcast, you’ll find a lot of lore in here that’s only briefly mentioned in the show.

Apologies for the long delay in new content. Life has become annoyingly busy as of late, but I’m still working on Starhopper when and where I’m able! Several scripts are done or almost done, and the upcoming bonus episode’s table read went well! Keep your eyes & ears peeled...!👀

[Starhopper Radio Podcast @StarhopperRadio]

Oh, I love it when everything falls into place. Treasure your shower epiphanies, people.

[Starhopper Radio Podcast @StarhopperRadio]

@EchoCouncilCo Take your time; you’ve got plenty of it. Hope things work out for you!

what’s up y’all it’s 11:45 PM local time and I’m having a mental breakdown live on discord voice chat because I seem to be experiencing the Mandela Effect over MY OWN SPACEDAMN PODCAST

[Starhopper Radio Podcast @StarhopperRadio]

@sector0pod aaa, thank you!! I’m of the opinion that when it comes to sophonts, weirder is better! and even though this is an audio medium, my goal is that you’ll be able to hear the difference in species!

[Starhopper Radio Podcast @StarhopperRadio]

some of the alien species you lovely listeners will get to meet over the course of the show! yes, the big guys ARE sapient- not all intelligences are humanoid!

these are just sketches, so pardon the overlapping lines and joint skeletons ^~^;
