Brains be gone

  1. D&D Podcast November 20, 2009: Author Ethan Gilsdorf – I don’t think that Gilsdorf in any way intended this, but I felt vaguely insulted by his point of view about geekdom.
  2. The Survival Guide to Writing Fantasy The Big Goodbye (Part I) – Figures my second episode would be the finale. *rolls eyes*
  3. The Sofanauts No 33 – Entertained and informed at the same time. The discussion on politics will probably have ruffled some feathers, but it was open and frank and not-malicious… and therefore awesome.
  4. Fourcast Podcast Omega Point steals our gender – Ep. 7 – I had dropped Fourcast because it doesn’t address writing, but I couldn’t stay away. Lots of thought provoking fourcasting and… I’ll be staying. I think that the ideas addressed here are totally ripe for the stealing. Xp
  5. Theme and Variations Episode 2: Black Orchid, by Rick Novy – Very smooth. I can’t figure out why, maybe it is the flowers, but I want to compare this to Heather Roulo’s scifi horror story about a man eating plant. Oh and the end was very nice. I want to know if Novy constructed the story to use that ending.
  6. Theme and Variations Episode 3: Post-Apocalyptic Guitar in G Minor, by Caroline Rhodes -
  7. Touching the Monolith Episode 25-3 Interview Special with Michelle M. Welch – Between Lejon (TTM) and Mangan, I now know about Welch. Which is why I was able to enjoy the two stories listed above. So, thanks!
  8. The Nanomonkeys: The End – Didn’t I list this one yesterday?

27:37 | 30:54 | 26:36 | 4:18

  12. The D&D Podcast November 06, 2009: The Assassin and Primal Power
  13. The 4th Age Podcast – Episode 62 – The Gathering Storm – First Impressions
  14. Tekdiff 11/6/09 The Account: Relic Skies Pt 10 – The Conclusion – Very very impressive. Start from the beginning though, otherwise you won’t have the appropriate character arcs and it may seem a bit overwrought. This is not a ding, this is a reminder to read the beginning first and then ending last.
  15. The Sofanauts No 31
  16. 23. Gimmie – Lessons From A Geek Fu Master – Oddly enough, I’ve been thinking about this subject for the last little while.
  17. The Nanomonkeys: Day 7
  18. The Nanomonkeys: Day 8
  19. Touching the Monolith Episode 25 – Interview Time with P.J. Ballantine! – No bones about it, Lejon did an excellent job here. I feel like we were afforded a new, slightly different aspect of Pip.
  20. The Dreamer’s Thread episode 12
  21. Common Sense with Dan Carlin Show 163 – Blocking the Playmakers
  22. The Creative Penn Podcast: Mur Lafferty on Writing Novels and Top Tips for NaNoWriMo
  23. Nina Kimberly the Merciless Companion Ep 09 – Oh hey, that’s me! HI ELLIS! *cough*
  24. The Nanomonkeys: Day 9
  25. The TrapCast Episode 39 – Morality and Win Buttons
  26. The History of Rome 73- The Only Man Who Improved

29:39 | 43:18 | 27:07 | 16:11 hours of podsumated goodnessery. Made up words are fun.

The final October Thursday

  1. KAMN Show #45: Ghostbusters
  2. Cybrosis Test Post
  3. Get Published Episode 16 (Special) – The Release of 7th Son is Nigh, A Chat with JC Hutchins
  4. The Sofanauts No 30 The State of Asimov’s Special – Hot Hot Hot

27:40 | 34:25 | 30:47 | 3:38

Midweek blahs

It figures. I fix the car heater… and tada! It warms up outside. It’s like nature decided to mock my efforts. Well, next time I see nature, I’m going to blow a raspberry at it.

  1. Get Published Episode 15 – Interview with Tina Hunter
  2. The Sofanauts No 29 – Very loud, very high levels. Heh. I felt like the Writers of the Future guy was a little too salesman slick, but it wore off after a little while and he was genuinely interesting. Another good episode.
  3. Resonance FM Wavelength – 2008 February 29th Marcel Duchamp’Ms Erratum – Very quiet, low levels. I’m not really sure what this was, but it has some mildly bad music and didn’t last long.
  4. Resonance FM Electric Sheep podcast: New approaches to Zombie cinema – Again, very low levels. It was difficult to make out what anyone was saying.
  5. The History of Rome 70- Galba and Otho – Sounds to me like Galba was one of those that is great as long as the boss is around, but as soon as he’s on his own he just starts to screw around.
  6. The Phileas Club – S4. Healthcare for dummies – The take away: healthcare is screwed up everywhere, corporations are amoral, and there is no good solution to any of the problems… but there are better solutions than the ones we are using currently.
  7. Sneak preview of WanderRadio 45: Halloween Special

When Tuesday is Monday

  1. Dave’s Psych Classes Statistics 2126 – Standard Distributions 02 – I’m not sure if I am getting anything useful here without the whiteboard/blackboard display.
  2. Dave’s Psych Classes Psychology 3106 (Fall 09) – Neural Mechanisms 02 and Behavioural Development 01
  3. The 4th Age Podcast – Episode 57 – Knife of Dreams Recap Part 2 – Prologue pt 2 of 2 – Two hours of in-depth discussion of the PROLOGUE for Robert Jordan’s Knife of Dreams. Wow.
  4. Mad Cow Books Podcast Episode Zero – Mad Cow sounded pretty well put together for a Zero episode. And the music just makes me want to dance. (Or watch Firefly.)
  5. The Adventures of Indiana Jim  #32: The Last Guardians, More Headlines, and Bad Ratings
  6. PodCastle  Miniature 38: Accounting for Dragons – Pretty damn clever. I’d just about tuned out at the beginning, but then everything shifted and tied together very nicely.
  7. War Episode 14 – I know I’m not supposed to like Morrigan, but… somehow I can’t help myself.
  8. 19. All the Pharmacy’s a Stage – Lessons From A Geek Fu Master
  9. Common Sense with Dan Carlin Show 161 – Shhh! – As is usual, I find myself despairing about the state of and future of politics in the States.
  10. Tekdiff 9/10/09 – The Account: Relic Skies Pt. 7 -
  11. The Sofanauts No 27
  12. MSNBC Rachel Maddow (audio) – 10-09-2009 – Add Maddow on top of Dan Carlin… and I’m left wanting to leave the human race to their hate-filled stupidity. Gah.
  13. The Dreamer’s Thread episode 9

  9. Media Frenzy Show 30
  10. Tekdiff 10/2/09 The Account: Relic Skies Pt 6 – Still awesome. Can’t wait to see how this one wraps up.
  11. The Sofanauts No 27
  12. BEWARE THE HAIRY MANGO Episode 9 – Boss Conversion – Oh my.
  13. Tumbler Episode 9 – Tumbler is telling herself how great things are and I’m mentally yelling at her, “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO” and then… well, you know what happens when you say things are good. They go boom.
  14. QattusChat 5
  15. The Walking Eye Episode 14: Not Roleplaying in Roleplaying Games – I had a whole bunch of responses as I was listening to this very though provoking episode. And then I promptly forgot what I wanted to say. This level of meta conversation is exactly the kind of conversation I love to listen in on.
  16. East Meets West 176 – Phosphorus for all of us
  17. Wander Radio: A Halloween Bonus Episode – While I enjoyed this preview, I think it slaked my thirst for the topic. I’m not so sure that more would be a good thing.
  18. Get Published, Episode 14 – Submission Discussion with Gabrielle Harbowy – Very nice conversation with Gabrielle. I’d like to hear a contrasting interview with a subs editor who has been doing the job for too long and isn’t quite as… nice about it. It’s always a good thing to get both the carrot and the stick.
  19. Beware the Hairy Mango Episode 10 – Gifts from the Lawn
  20. Radio Isopod Promo #2
  21. The Stolen Moon of Londor – Chapter 02: A Troubled City – The White Shadow Saga: The Stolen Moon of Londor – This is done in a very “epic” style and I’m starting to wonder if I don’t particularly care for this style anymore. I used to love it. Now… I’m grumbling at the narrator, “Why are they elves? Is it just because they are ‘cool’? Or is there an actual reason?”
  22. Beware the Hairy Mango Episode 11 – How a Telepathic Ladder Visits his Brother Across the Country What an odd little story. I didn’t even realize what it was until it had already been over for a few seconds. Nice. I think.
  23. PodCastle 073: Rapunzel
  24. The Secret Lair Episode 0028: The Time Traveler’s Wife – I had no interest whatsoever in this story until listening to the overlords (and overwives.) Now, I’ll have to consider it next time I see a copy.
  25. Goblin Market Episode 12
  26. SkepChick Tim Minchin at TAM London (Unedited!)

Only 17:54 left in my queue.

EDIT: I forgot that the SpyCast is a direct link to the MP3. Sorry folks.
