Episode 86: Live with Gary K. Wolfe! (and Sophie!)

This week Gary and I start off discussing aspects of compiling 'best of the year' anthology, touch on genre drift and blur, move on to a few recent stories we've greatly admired, and then invite Sophie back at the very end of the 'cast for a quick chat about her recent reading. As always, we hope you enjoy the podcast.

Episode 85: Live with Gary K. Wolfe and Cheryl Morgan

This week we're delighted to welcome Cheryl Morgan back to the podcast after too long an absence to discuss the Hugo Awards, graphic stories, semiprozines, fancasts and all sorts of interesting eligibility questions, as well as the Science Fiction and Fantasy Translation Awards. As always, we hope you enjoy the podcast, and will see you next week!

Episode 84: Live with Gary K. Wolfe and Elizabeth Hand!

Episode 83: Live with Gary K. Wolfe!

For the first regular podcast of 2012 Gary and I answer listener "Cam from Canada's" questions about Gene Wolfe (or try to), foreshadow some stuff for future episodes, briefly discuss Hugo nominations opening, chat about John Crowley's work and some other stuff. As always, we hope you enjoy the podcast!

Episode 82: Live with Gary K. Wolfe!

With New Year's Eve beckoning, but just out of reach, Gary and I fired up the pod one last time for 2011 to discuss Rusty Hevelin, the memory of the field, the year we had, and all sorts of other things. On a serious note, we would like to deeply and sincerely thank everyone who appeared as a guest, commented on the blog, tweeted or blogged about the podcast, voted or  nominated it for an award, said something nice about the podcast in passing in an elevator or at the bar - basically, everyone who has responded to it in any way. This first full year of podcasting has been a constant joy, surprise and delight and we'd like to thank all of the Coode St Community and wish you all a safe and happy celebration and the best year ever for 2012  (except for Mayans, who might be in for a bit of a torrid time).

Episode 81: The Second Annual Boxing Day Super Mega Podcast

As we observed last year, the day after Christmas is a special one, dedicated to winding down after a day of feasting and gift giving, laughter and merriment. Things slow down – unless you have a taste for the mega-discount sales – and people tend to relax with family. This morning, Perth time, at least, a bunch of participants in Australian podcasting joined together to record The Second Annual Boxing Day Super Mega Podcast. Participating were:

• Alex, Alisa, and Tansy from Galactic Suburbia;
• Ian and Kirstyn from The Writer and the Critic; and
• Gary and I from The Coode St Podcast.

Sadly, Grant from Bad Film Diaries couldn't make. What we ended up with was seven seven people talking, in a fairly organised manner about their highlights of 2011 and what they’re looking forward to in 2012.  Because I was doing the engineering  for this there was a stuff up and the first 20 minutes of the podcast were lost forever.  Alex and I did a quick do-over and new intro which we think works pretty well.  Either way, we all hope you enjoy it, and that you check out our individual podcasts which will be coming out in the next weeks and months. PS: While this is not an episode of The Coode St Podcast proper, it counts as episode 81 as far as we're concerned :)
