New 2026 Schedule for TBS and side stories
Good day everyone,
We are making some very minor changes to the Black Ship release schedule. Please see the updated details below.
Patreon
Tuesday, TBS (main story), moved from Monday
Wednesday, WTJ (released straight after TBS)
Thursday, BoSF (now a standalone side story with regular reports)
Rumble
(Same release order, but one week or more behind Patreon)
Tuesday, TBS (main story)
Wednesday, WTJ
Thursday, BoSF
This change is to bring the episodes more in line, rather than having TBS on a Monday and WTJ on a Wednesday. You should now receive the stories in a three day, unbroken run.
Hopefully this works well for everyone.
This starts from today. TBS has already been released today, Monday, but from next week onward it will move to Tuesday.
Thanks!

Thought I missed it, but still not posted
No BOSF this week?
What time should the updates be hitting Rumble and am I right in thinking that the next update will be TBS and mark the 'proper' start of the new schedule?
So is YouTube a total wash from now on and just a repository for other stories?
MORE DATA
What about all the other stories like Evolution of a nobody and the many other great stories? I am a channel patreon, not just for the black ship. I am not a fan of rumble for many reasons of what content they allow, but I don't have to be a member to watch but I also can't give a thumbs up or comment.
What happend to perfectly wrong and terran contact
Perfectly wrong stopped but terran contact is still going. Available on reddit. I know vextrooper is about to publish his story again on an audio platform soon..
👍
Wait wait wait, this is back to Gabriel before the events of the last “What’s the job?” Post?” Multiple plot lines interwoven is to be expected of course, but across multiple sources? And this Patreon site doesn’t work right half the time on my Apple devices. So now we have TBS, BOSF, WTJ, and with the out of order flashback TBS seems to be WTH??? Plus whatever the hell is going on back on youtube with some sort of AI slop labeled TBS using similar chapter numbers, TBS characters, but a wildly different plot-line that seems to be trying to hijack Wyatt fans… Somebody make the insanity stop, PLEASE!
No need to get flustered, just think of this week's TBS as a flashback. WTJ is slightly ahead and post the climax of the Pirate fight.
Sounds awesome, the universe grows and will avoid listener fatigue.
Thank you
This is really good news — especially the confirmation that BoSF is now a standalone story. That feels very well deserved and a proper recognition of how strong and consistent David’s work has been. The length, pacing and storytelling in BoSF have been excellent, and the audience response has been consistently positive for a long time now. If David keeps doing what he’s been doing, I honestly think this will only strengthen the channel. I also really want to say thank you to scifistories for setting out the schedule clearly in advance. That’s genuinely appreciated and makes a big difference to how people experience the platform. One small suggestion for the future would be to also flag holiday or break periods in advance where possible — uncertainty around drops has probably caused more frustration than anything else over time, and a bit of forward notice would really help manage expectations. I’d also love to see Viper get a standalone storyline at some point in the future too — his chapters are consistently engaging and usually hit that 30+ minute mark, which (for me at least) feels like a really good minimum length for episodic storytelling. I’m glad Ekhinder is staying on board and has agreed to the revised plan. Given that TBS chapters are typically shorter round 20 mins, I do wonder whether in the future it might work better as a fortnightly double-drop instead — that could give a more satisfying ~40 minute experience per release without putting any extra pressure on him to write more. Overall though, this feels like a really positive and sensible step forward. Thanks for listening to feedback and for putting a clearer structure around releases — it really is appreciated.
As a casual follower I'm a bit lost. I know YouTube demonetized and things are moving here and to rumble. But it all seems to be black ship related. Are you still going to post HFY videos in general? I believe you were posting 3 a day forever and I really enjoyed the variety and content
It is greatly appreciated. The effort to not only retain an audience, but to keep the story alive. I have so many unfinished stories in my mind waiting to be completed. Thank you.
If the stories are insink again. That would be great.
How much do I need to pay to get a 5 day a week fix? :) Cloning is a thing now
This is a nice change...
Awesome, your efforts are amazing, such dedication to your followers, sincerely thank you, bring on the new schedule.
As long as we can get our fixes of these Great Stories!! I’ve been hooked ever since discovering TBS!!
Awesome. I always look forward to The Black Ship releases. I hope the authors scifistories and my crewmates all had a great Christmas and New Years.
Sounds great. I have a thought. Would it be possible to somehow tag or mark the side stories as to where they fit in the main story for time frame? Like yhis episode of WTJ is happening and should be listened to after chapter xx of TBS.
I am thoroughly grateful for any order and 1 each a week is awesome. Thanks for your efforts
Does that mean we get another TBS tomorrow:).
Thanks for the update. 👍👍
So no second story this week
Well tbh, tbs is what makes Monday not suck so bad, but what are u going to do... Now Tues will not suck so bad... TY!!!
Would it be possible to get an absolute order listing of all the episodes from the start of the side stories so that they can be interleaved into the main story in the proper locations?
I would like to second this, one for confirmation on the timeliness & also for when I re-listen to it I can do so in time line order.
knowing that there was a new chapter coming out made Monday tolerable.
So starting next Tuesday 01/13/2026 it is TBS
👍
Thanks for the heads up. 👍

Thanks for the update! 🫡
