Bonus Episode #9: The Convoluted King Kong Copyright

“Hold on there, Nate!” you're saying. “This isn’t Episode 50!” And you’re right. I underestimated how time-consuming a project Episode 50 would be, so…it’s being delayed one week. The bright side is, including this bonus episode, you’re getting content from me for three Wednesdays in a row! What is this? Think of it as a “lost episode” that’s outside MIFV continuity. It was a project I did for a Writing for Multimedia class when I was in grad school back in 2019. I researched copyright law since I knew I’d be covering that on a future episode of the podcast (King Kong Lives with John LeMay), so I shared my research in a creative way with this. (I got an “A,” by the way). This was originally exclusive to Patreon, and I did intend to release it before episode 50, but that was supplanted by the Monster Island Gatekeepers episode. Regardless, consider this a small gift for being patient as I finish Episode 50. Thanks! Sound effects sourced from Freesound.org.
