Just wanted to use this weird message system to say a big THNAKS (It's like "thanks", only spelled incorrectly) for all your kind words about the 15th anniversary of Ashens. It's good to know there'll still be people around watching my next 850 videos because THE TAT MUST FLOW.
There is an odd coincidence in the anniversary stuff too. I was expecting to celebrate two milestones this year - 15 years, and half a billion views. Except... the channel hit half a billion views the exact same day as the 15th anniversary! So we'll have to hold out for 750,000,000 which will take about another 8 years or so. Ho hum. I'll make sure the Funk Spindle has fresh batteries for then.
Thinking about it, it's not the only time-related coincidence we had. We started shooting Ashens and the Polybius Heist exactly 7 years to the minute from the time we started shooting Quest for the GameChild! What are the chances of that?! ...About 1 in 261, as we never start shooting on a weekend and we always start day one at a sensible time in the morning. (Incidentally, if you want any physical discs of our films jump over to ashensmovie.com quicksmart - they're only available for about 26 hours from the time I'm sending this message and I don't know when / if they'll be back.)
I look forward to to the next weird coincidence. Maybe I'll put up a video about a new POP Station the same moment scientists work out how people can fire their arms and legs at each other.
Stay groovy and remember: if you fancy some more Ashens-y nonsense I do live shows on Twitch every Wednesday at 8:30pm and Sundays at 8pm, all UK time. Wednesdays are interactive quizzes and weird games, Sundays are guests and mostly laughing at old consumer catalogues. twitch.tv/ashens (Sunday streams are likely to stop when the pandemic is over but Wednesdays are forever.)
