Greetings all! Sad news that our wacky and informative TORn TUESDAY will not be aired today due to technical problems and shifting staff schedules. Your amiable host, Clifford “Quickbeam” Broadway has been working with producer Justin “I Love Jar-Jar” Sewell to create a new and better webcast with surprising guests coming up soon! We will resume our regular showtime next Tuesday, March 19th, at 5:00pm Pacific Time. In the 2+ years we have been bringing you the best live streaming show in all fandom, we have only missed *one* broadcast. A rather sterling record, as you can imagine the work of hand-crafting a new show every week is not easy. Trust that exciting news and information will continue to be posted here on TheOneRing.net, with exclusives and surprises you will not see anywhere else on the web, as we continue to create a fan community FORGED BY AND FOR FANS of J.R.R. TOLKIEN. Thank you for all your continued support.
Much too hasty,
Quickbeam

The production, which has an all-volunteer cast and crew, is offering levels starting at $5.00 which will help with the costs of making the film: sets, costumes, puppets, make-up, on-set meals, marketing, and more.
