Ralph and Rick are honored to bring you the first episode: CHAPTER ONE of the PHANTOM EMPIRE CROSSOVER PROJECT!
Lost to the annals of history*, a forgotten people bravely struggle for their very way of life in this stunning epic serial. This is the story of the Singing Cowboy, proud, majestic, harmonic... They can take his land, but they can never take his spirit. Without a flimsy radio contract.
Oh, and there's some underground civilization not seen since the last ice age. With robots.
...And Gene Autry, one time owner of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim! Frankie Darro, before his breakthrough role as Delivery Boy on the Addams Family! Betsy King Ross, "Queen of Young Wild West Riders" at age 14! And of course Smiley Burnette, inventor of the emoticon.
Over 20 Riffers take part in taking apart this 12-EPISODE adventure serial from February 1st through April 18th!

* Heh. I said "annals".
Beware the ravenous sky cow!
Great stuff from Ralph and Rick. Tons o' funny, and well-performed to boot. A terrific start to the Phantom Empire project.
Thanks, Cap'n. That means a lot to us coming from the Old Style Goodtime Funtrack Factory; it's what we were looking for: GRAVITAS.
I'm also available for funerals and war memorial dedications.
Decided to make this my first serial iRiff! Very good jokes! And I like the way you're dissing the same shot again and again! Well spotted 5/5
