Mission Start Podcast

Hello Mission Start Podcast Faithful. For 10 years we been giving you the latest content on anime conventions, video game news podcasts, and much more. You seen us grow, and create stuff we are proud of, and things we tried and didn't work out. Like all things, we love what we do, but after awhile we all moved on, or got tired. So I have some good news, and some bad news.  Bad News: With one or two things I need to do for the site, there will be no more content coming to the website as our staff has downsized to just the three of us, and this site takes so much more man power to manage. Even thinking about it myself, I am really turned off by the idea. Good News: Mission Start will continue to make content, but mainly on our youtube channel, and other possible avenues. Me and Chubrockgeek have discussed that we still want to make content together, but only focusing on what we like to make on our youtube channel. Our twitch channels we will have our own, and will make content on those as well. More then likely we will keep the name, but we could change it in the future to move on to our next chapter in our lives in whatever form that takes. So I will personally keep this site going until the day I die, because I don't want to get rid of the hard work we all did for the site. You might see another tab open above, where I will make a separate area of ideas we had, and or things we did in the past for those who missed it. I like to think of this site not only as a memory, but also a museum of the work we did, and what ideas we came across. It was great working on the site, but after some time, I got tired. Thank you everyone who helped us get to see different conventions, and different ideas with us. We will continue our next chapter on our youtube channel at youtube.com/missionstarttube Until then, we see you guys next time. -Anthony Beanes Director of Mission Start Podcast
