Anyone know when Kindred Spirits Season 3 starts?
See title. Just curious if anyone has heard anything about KSP season 3 and when they plan on starting up again.

If I remember from one of the most recent ones that there's no specific dates but a very general time period being later in the year. I would not be surprised if they begin posting as release of NI approaches since they can have plenty of things to discuss about the expansion closer to release.

Dang, I remembered it as some time in the spring/ in March. But whenever they are back I’ll be listening, they definitely deserve a break from the hard work they put during the seasons.

The last episode of Season 2 said they we planning to start again in Spring (February / March / April) so that’s still on the cards. But they also said they were planning on doing some off season content which never happened (or at least it hasn’t been aired) so who knows?

Spring (February / March / April)
Since when is February spring?

Season 1 started Jan 2021 and Season 2 started Feb 2022. So clearly this month some time!

They release new episodes on Saturdays, and that would be next month, so I'm assuming it is not going to be this month.

I second this. Looking forward for season 3 start to hype up Nature Incarnate content and spirits!

Waiting for NI to be released? They always playtest first
1
They were NI playtesters
3
New playtest guidelines will restrict discussion about NI (from analysis perspective) until 3 months after NI release.

I'm assuming that 3 month wait does not apply to content revealed by the people running the campaign?
1
Unfortunately, it applies to everything! We can talk about what we like/dislike or lore, theme, and rules, but nothing analytical.

Ahh, got it.
Well, with that in mind, Kindred Spirits tends to focus far more on likes, dislikes, lore theme and rules than on analysis, so they will probably be good to go once the game releases.

So if they want to do a podcast about it, they will have to wait 3 months after the release of NI? When the first boxes get shipped?

It was a funny coincidence that I saw this post this morning because I was going to make an announcement very soon about this very question!
The original plan was to have released 2 episodes in between S3 and then start S3 roughly about this time, give or take a few weeks. Unfortunately however there have been some events and developments that have happened in our real lives that have turned things for the worse 🫤
In addition to the busyness of performance season, the team at my job has been assailed with health issues which left me to carry the business alone by myself. This wouldn't be so bad in theory but I then sustained an injury and messed up my right ankle pretty bad, which complicated matters unexpectedly. It slowed me down which resulted in a lot of late nights working 12-14 hour days all the time while hobbling and working with a boot on my leg. On top of this there were other things as well that I'll probably go into more detail later, but in short, John and Laura had a death in the family and I had a cancer scare in my family that really affected me emotionally and I had a hard time focusing on other things. Laura and I each went back to school this semester which also left us with little free time to work with.
With that said I was thankfully able to get some work done on those episodes I mentioned earlier. Now that I think things are starting to stabilize a bit (I hope 😅) I would like to think that we'd be able to get the train back on the tracks and get moving again.
In any case, I want you to know that we are so grateful and thankful for you and all our listeners in seeing and knowing that you appreciate our work and that you await S3 with anticipation! I'll speak for myself here when I say that when confronted with the possible reality of losing a loved one to cancer, it's very easy for your mind to go to a dark place even if you don't want it to go there. One of the things that provided a big encouragement to me was reading and looking at the various comments from all of you saying that you enjoyed the show, it brought me some emotional relief during that time and it helped me, so seriously thank you all immensely! Sometimes you might not know how important your encouragement can be but I can assure you of it's value!
I'm so sorry that we haven't been able to get to the things we wanted to and I deeply apologize for not delivering on the commitments we vocalized. It's still our desire to produce those episodes but it might just be that they release later then we originally wanted. Thank you so much for your patience and your encouragement throughout these past few years! We really couldn't do any of this without you and I hope you know that!
That’s a lot to go through in any season of life. Deaths and health scares can have so many unknowns and scary/difficult aspects.
I have been very thankful to have kindred spirit in my daily routine. I listen to it almost every day to and from work. I work in the mental health field and some days can be rough. After a day of therapy it has been a great way to relax and decompress.
I’ve always appreciated the realness and genuine atmosphere the three of you have created on the podcast. Taking a break, whether intentional or not, I think speaks to y’all being real with where you’re at and who you are.
Thanks for being a light in dark places when all others have gone out (had to throw in a lord of the rings reference :), providing deep insight, lots of laughs and entertainment, and helping me be a better spirit island player. Oh and also highlighting that fangs has a special rule.
Hope things are on the up and up for all of you. Excited to see whatever next steps look like for y’all!
Wow. Best wishes for you all as you get things back on track. Like so many other good things in life, this podcast is worth waiting for, so take your time and we will all enjoy Season 3 when it arrives!
Please take care of yourselves. Sending all of the positive vibes!
Only discovered your podcast a few months ago and have worked my way through to ep 54 so far. When I saw no new episodes for a while I assumed it might have come to an end. Very happy to hear there's more coming. But please don't apologise or feel rushed. Real life comes first. Take care.
