The Amazing Adventures of Captain Farr Novarider and the Wild Horses - Episode 14 - The Junk World

In which our heroes travel to the center of the Earth. Except it's not really the Earth. It's only kind of the center, well, it's this asteroid that has a... look, just listen to the damn episode.

The Amazing Adventures of Captain Farr Novarider and the Wild Horses - Episode 11 - The Damsel of Gemini Delta IV

After a much anticipated (not really) wait, the audio chronicles of Captain Farr Novarider and his crew of Wild Horses return!  Tonight's story is: The Damsel of Gemini Delta IV.

In which our heroes take hunt for a grand treasure lost to the reaches of space!  A villainous space Duke!  A damsel in distress!  A needlessly creepy kid!  It's a shame I didn't focus the story on this.  Nope.  Instead, Reagan and Hollander take a day-off and hang-out together.  Seriously, what was I thinking?



Well, I'm happy to say that after much frustration, I finally managed to complete Season 2.  Ladies and gentlemen, I'm happy to present to you Episode 11 of The Amazing Adventures of Captain Farr Novarider and the Wild Horses.

I'll be continuing the schedule that I started with the previous season, releasing the new episode every other Thursday, right here on Boundcompass.  As always, please leave comments, likes, dislikes, et cetera.  I would love to hear from you.

Also, unless I have something absolutely pressing to say or news to announce, I think that I'm going to be discontinuing the written post that I've normally appended to each episode.  This is mostly because when I write these, I'm usually fairly mentally drained.  I'm not even certain that I'm providing anything new for you to read or if anyone is reading them.  I don't want to bore you guys any more than I already have, so that being said, please enjoy the episode and look forward to the continuing adventures of Captain Farr Novarider and the crew of the FFS Cabalina.

The Amazing Adventures of Captain Farr Novarider and the Wild Horses - Episode 09 - Platypus, the Bounty Hunter

In which our hero... gets drunk and falls asleep, apparently.  Awesome.  Well, our side kicks... are abducted by a third rate bounty hunter.  Is anyone really trying at this point?


Okay, this time, I promise: no more platypus jokes.  Seriously, I'm done.  It's okay to go back into the water.

The Amazing Adventures of Captain Farr Novarider and the Wild Horses - Episode 07 - the Revenge of Galabrax

In which our heroes must face the return of an old enemy.  Novarider is denied some of his most valued crew members... and Reagan.



I think I'm done with the Christ on a Cracker joke as of writing this post.  It'll show up a couple more times, but it's definitely not going to be a running gag.  I think the intention was to turn it into a returning joke, but I had so many other better ones, now it's just a bit of product placement more than anything.

I knew that Galabrax was going to have to return when I first created the character.  He was fun to write and fun to act (although he's killer on the throat).  He's almost a character who writes himself, which is convenient for me.  I'm just sad that he's not in this season all that much - although he has a much bigger presence in the second season (coming soon).

In listening to this episode again, one of the problems that I'm shaking my head at (other than the otherwise visual humor), is that Captain Jake sounds too similar to Galabrax over the hailing frequency.  I suppose that's just a problem that I have to deal with since I'm certainly no professional voice actor, and I don't have the money to pay one.

In non-the Amazing Adventures of Captain Farr Novarider and the Wild Horses news, not to long ago, I finished fleshing out a new side series idea.  I still have to put in a little bit more thought on presentation as well as finalizing the scripting, but it could prove to be an interesting diversion to work on The Amazing Adventures.  I don't think that it will turn into a main stay for the blog, so much as just be something that I try to put out once a month to keep things from being kind of stale.

I do have plans for a different type of series for "the off-season" of the Amazing Adventures, but right now I still have a lot of work to do on the second season.  I'm probably going to sit down a flesh out a concept as well as (hopefully) a rough of the first episode.  I have some vacation time coming soon, so that might be the time that I put some work into it.

The Amazing Adventures of Captain Farr Novarider and the Wild Horses - Episode 05 - The Royal Pirate Hunters

Tonight's episode is The Royal Pirate Hunters.  In which our heroes must face their deadliest enemy, yet: a pair of bored Confederated counts.  Can they escape the sleepy Count Urban Cometdust? Probably.  But watch anyway!




The last few weeks have apparently been a bunch of firsts for me.  From hitting 1000 site views and still going strong at 1652 at time of writing this, having a single episode make over 100 total views (apparently less than 10% of hits actually watch one of my episodes - awesome), and today for the first time, I forget to post the new episode.  GOING STRONG, BABY! WOO!

The Amazing Adventures of Captain Farr Novarider and the Wild Horses

Lady's and gentlemen. Boys and Girls. I am proud to present to you:

My new audio drama, the Amazing Adventures of Captain Farr Novarider and the Wild Horses!

Tonight's episode is: The Betrayal at Proxima Serpentis VI.


I should make quick mention that this episode does use some strong language. If at work, you may want to put head phones on.


**The video is no longer here.  I've moved it over here instead.**


Just a quick note, all: this is audio only; the title card is just a place holder.
