Category: Rogue Tyger

We did a whole host of bonus segments for our Patrons this past summer that originally played on WERA between episodes of Rogue Tyger.

This is technically the bonus segment that would have played during the 2023 re-broadcast of Rogue Tyger, going between part 4 and part 5 of “The End Run.” The only thing is: those episodes were long enough so we didn’t need a bonus segment… but then we thought about it and decided we needed to “complete the set” as it were.

In the segment, writer/director Bjorn Munson talks about how “The End Run” was structured to give what is hopefully a satisfying conclusion of the plot through the first two seasons as well as giving a few ticklers for seasons to come.

In the segment, writer/director Bjorn Munson talks about the origins of the poet Borellio whom Aidan quotes in the last part of “Cat and Mouse” leading to a rare non-cliffhanger ending.

You’ll eventually hear what bits of ancient Earth culture did make “the crossing” as Imperial citizens refer to those ancient times, but part of the world building was establishing artists and writers and poets whose whole life was in that corner of the galaxy.
