Remnant Is Expanding
A message from Chris Heaven
You can listen to my announcement or keep reading below…
If you’re looking for Episodes 11 and 12 and wondering why they haven’t appeared in your podcast feed yet, nothing is wrong.
Starting this weekend, Survival Dispatch Remnant is moving to a subscriber-first release schedule.
Episode 11 has already been released to paid subscribers at right here on SurvivalDispatchRemnant.com.
Going forward, every new episode will release first to paid subscribers. One week later, that same episode will be released publicly through Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Podcast Addict, and every other major podcast platform.
That means Episode 11 is available right now for paid subscribers and will reach the public podcast feed next weekend.
Why I’m Making This Change
Before Episode One ever launched, before a single line was recorded, before anybody pressed play, I had already written 104 episodes.
Not outlines.
Not concepts.
Not notes.
One hundred and four completed episodes.
I knew where this story started. I knew where it was going. And I knew how the journey unfolded long before the first episode ever aired.
What I didn’t know was how strongly the community would respond to it.
Over the last ten episodes, I’ve received emails, comments, messages, and conversations from listeners who have become invested in these characters and this world.
That’s exactly what I hoped would happen.
The first ten episodes accomplished precisely what they were supposed to accomplish.
They introduced the Smith family.
They introduced Camp Ridge.
They introduced the Black Vultures.
They established the world.
They established the stakes.
And they laid the foundation for everything that comes next.
Nothing about those episodes changes.
Nothing is being rewritten.
Nothing is being redone.
Those episodes are the foundation this entire story stands on.
What’s Changing
What changes is how each new episode is delivered.
Starting next weekend, every new Remnant episode will be expanded and released across the weekend in two parts.
Part One and Part Two are not separate episodes.
They are a single expanded episode released across a single weekend.
Instead of compressing everything into one release, each chapter now has room to breathe.
Part One will release every Saturday at noon Eastern for paid subscribers.
Part Two will release every Sunday at noon Eastern for paid subscribers.
One week later, Part One will release publicly on Saturday evening and Part Two will release publicly on Sunday evening through the podcast feed.
This isn’t a temporary change.
This isn’t an experiment.
This is the format moving forward.
The Story Is Just Getting Started
As I looked ahead at the story that has already been written, it became obvious that the scale of what’s coming is much larger than what you’ve heard so far.
The world gets bigger.
The threats get bigger.
The stakes get higher.
The consequences become heavier.
The emotional moments become deeper.
And the story deserves more room to breathe.
Because what you’ve heard so far is only the beginning.
Camp Ridge is not the destination.
The Black Vultures are not the full threat.
Several of the most important storylines are only beginning to reveal themselves.
The world you’ve been listening to is much larger than it appears today.
And now I’ll have the room to tell that story the way it was originally written.
I’ve known where this story was headed since the day I wrote Episode One.
And after writing 104 episodes before launch, I can tell you with complete confidence that the best parts of this story are still ahead of us.
What Paid Subscribers Receive
If you’re enjoying Remnant and want immediate access to Episode 11 right now, along with every future episode the moment it’s released, become a paid subscriber today.
But you’re not just getting early access to the audio.
Paid subscribers also receive the companion articles that expand the story beyond what you hear in each episode.
You’ll receive invitations to the Remnant Roundtable webinars where we discuss the story, the characters, the decisions being made, and the future direction of the series.
And because those conversations happen while the larger story is still unfolding, you’ll have the opportunity to help shape where parts of that story go moving forward.
Remnant has always been more than an audio drama.
It’s a community.
And paid subscribers are helping build that community alongside me.
If that sounds like something you want to be part of subscribe here:
You’ll get immediate access to Episode 11, every future episode one week before the public release, the companion articles, and invitations to the Remnant Roundtable webinars.
The best parts of this story are still ahead of us.
Godspeed,
