The Riptide Pirates are back in a non canonical special holiday one shot! How are Gillion, Chip, & Jay going to save Crystmas???
The team splits up to complete their objectives in time. Will they be too late?

That's right! With our recording sessions for Wonderlust reaching their end, we finally have an estimate for Riptide's return from hiatus. Late summer 2025! That's likely around September! We're aiming to begin recording again next month, and then take as much time as we can to get our post production schedule comfortably ahead. If you've been keeping up with wonderlust, you should be able to tell the audio editing alone has gotten a huge boost. SO IMMERSIVE! Can't wait to hear seagulls squaking, canons firing, and the whispered screams from the hollowed souls of the damned!! Shoutout our post production team, they're seriously awesome.
In between the final episode of Wonderlust, and episode 116 of Ritpide, we're considering publishing video versions of Total Monster Kill! Uploading weekly to YouTube, it'd give us 6 extra weeks to prepare for Riptide's return. In the past, we've tried only publicly releasing a show's first few episodes, but we've never tried releasing a full campaign, after it's been exclusive for some time.
We've also got a really sweet NEW intro for Riptide in the works. Get hype. Shady Cicada returns to epicly shred on his electric guitar.
Whats after Judgement?
As far as our exclusive content goes, we seem to be about 2-3 recordings out from the finale of Judgement, the current Condi campaign. D&D is a bit fickle for us though, so it's hard to say. We might just search for 500 more horses for 2 hours. Either way, the next show will be another exclusive mini-campaign, ran by DM Grizzly. Bizly is taking some time off DMing after Wonderlust, so there's no new update on the next Prime Defenders season.
The next campaign will be called Midnight Shift, a series about a ragtag group of big city citizens and their goal to reach the top of an enigmatic tower in a parallel fantasy world. More info soon! Look forward to it!
