25 years a today I created my comic strip character Zope. I just drew a new comic for the occasion.

The Overnightscape Underground has been going through some “growing pains” lately – so I thought I would jot down some of the important ideas behind the channel. These are a set of standards/guidelines which I think will help clear up a lot of misunderstandings.

IMPORTANT IDEAS

Recently a new show was submitted for inclusion on The Overnightscape Underground – “Chicken Over Veggies” starring Komp, Chescu, and Mas Borracho. I listened to the first episode, and though it was a difficult decision, I chose not to add the show to the channel.

This experiment of ours, with multiple hosts doing shows here on Onsug, has been going since about September 2009. I never planned any of it – it just sort of happened, and I welcomed it. Now, there are a lot of shows on the channel, all very different, yet all very similar in some undefinable way.

So this is the first time I’ve had to reject a show. I knew it had to happen eventually, and it feels awful to be a kind of “censor”. But I feel strongly that The Overnightscape Underground has a tone, an identity, a feel – that while kind of impossible to pin down, is there. So though it’s uncomfortable for me, I do have to start to define the boundaries of tone and content.

Here’s a link to the show in question so you can check it out:

CHICKEN OVER VEGGIES ONE: Us versus the wrestlers

And here’s the show’s site with the second episode already up:

I do think it’s a good show, but at the same time, for me the level of “offensive” content is so high that I am not comfortable with it being on the channel – it has a very different feel than the other shows here.

Let me know what you think… did I make the right choice?

Onsug Manual is a 511 page, 3.3 MB PDF file containing full descriptions for all 2,620 transmissions in The Overnightscape Underground so far (up to January 2011). Its 395,000 words are searchable, so you can easily find when various topics were discussed. The typography is rudimentary, but it gets the job done.

We’re still exploring what relevance this could have to Onsug.

I bought this on eBay a few years ago, from the estate of Lois Nettleton, who was married to Jean Shepherd from 1960-1967. I assume Shep received this and kept it. The artwork was drawn onto the postcard by a fan who is only identified as “Enigma Inc.” Click for larger images…
