04:11 – Fit the Fifth

Eight years in the making (sort of), Not Them Productions and Powet.TV are proud to present to you Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Fit the Fifth — The Restaurant at the end of the Universe! If you’ve listened to six amazing podcasts today, why not round it off with an aural trip to Milliways?

Look at the jump for our show notes, and once again a link to the updated version of Infocom’s Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy game, playable online!

19:30 – Fit the Fifth Clip

What’s this, a filler week? Not exactly.

That’s not to say you’ll hear nothing from Fit the Fifth; for the first time you’ll hear from someone who isn’t Keith, Colin, or Tom talking about making this fit — Powet’s very own Phil Bond! Afterward, we’ll also share a completed clip from the fit, which will be totally completed for next week’s episode.

Look after the jump for an explanation of one of the more opaque references to a game project we worked on — including a downloadable demo of said game — and even a link to a Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy game, playable online!

It’s finally arrived, boys and girls — the final of the four originally-completed episodes by Not Them Productions. Our heroes make their escape from the planet of Magrathea to… where exactly? Those familiar with the original story may be surprised (but not unpleasantly so) by the answer.

Famicom Dojo @ No Brand Con 2008

No Brand Con 2007 Logo

It has been a few months since our last regular episode, but rest assured we are back in the swing of things with the final batch of episodes to finish out our first Season.

Come see me at No Brand Con 10am this Sunday, April 20th in Eau Claire, WI. I will be hosting panel about Famicom Dojo, including the world premiere of Episode 4 – Cartridges and Pins! Ask about the development of the show, the current ongoing Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy POWETcast, and other Powet TV projects.

Also, for a chance to be on camera in our No Brand Con special, come to the panel, or track me down during the convention!

For those who can’t attend No Brand Con (indeed, this includes most people), Episode 4 will be available online next week. Until then, feel free to catch up on our previous episodes — including all three parts of our Tokyo Game Show coverage:

Episode 3 – Fit the Third

This week we review Fit the Second, and look forward to Fit the Third! Chris joins the cast as Slartibartfast, we dicuss our unfamiliarity with “biros” and a few script changes. But, most importantly, we finally address one of the questions that have been burning in your collective souls — why do we occasionally pronounce words so terribly? Listen on, fellow Hitchhikers. Listen on…

Episode 1 – Fit the First
Episode 2 – Fit the Second

In this week’s episode, we review Fit the First with the Not Them Production team, and talk about producing Fit the Second. Now that Arthur and Ford have left Earth, the cast is about to expand in a big way! Tom, Keith, and Colin talk about the challenges of casting two actors to share the role of Zaphod Beeblebrox, a feat that had not been attempted in any of the official released recordings. Savvy Powet fans will recognize one of the heads as Powet’s own Phil Bond!

Episode 1 – Fit the First (direct link)

[Valid RSS]

Welcome to Powet.TV’s first audio netcast!

Part of the Powet Presents series, this weekly netcast will include all six episodes (called “fits”) of the Primary Phase of the BBC Radio version of Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, produced by Not Them Productions. At the top of every episode, we talk to the show’s producers, audio talent, and/or voice actors about the challenges and stories relating to this fan production. The discussion also includes explanations of the differences BBC Radio show and other versions of this story — including five novels, a TV miniseries, and a Disney feature film — as well as the changes the Not Them producers made to the radio scripts in order to keep them more in line with these versions.

But enough about that. Enjoy Episode 1 – Fit the First!, iTunes Chicklet check out our iTunes store, or  subscribe to our netcast feed in your favorite reader! And be sure to come back here and tell us what you thought!
