Parsec Nominees Pub Crawl

It’s that time again — the time when we all meet up at a bar and act in a publically embarassing manner for no other reason than it’s fun! This time, Rick Stringer of Variant Frequencies is in town. He will be joining Chris Lester and myself at Schroeder’s on Front Street tomorrow night, August 12, at 7pm for dinner, drinks, and miscellaneous tomfoolery. Come out, join us! Eventful listing and directions here.

And now, Episode 5, in which Jeremiah finds his place, Edelle makes breakfast, Gerd and Sarah make music, Kevin fails his dress code exam, and the snows begin in earnest. Bumper by uberfan Mildred Cady. Story So Far by Chris Lester, who plays Jeremiah and is master of his own universe of Metamor City.

Episode 6 coming tomorrow.

Parsec Finalist!

Well, ladies and germs, it’s official:

Predestination is a parsec finalist. Officially we’re up for “Best New Speculative Fiction Podcaster/Team,” and, while it’s only *one* of the nominations I was hoping for, if i had to pick only one this would probably be it. Why’s that? Well, this one has the advantage of being a shared award. I don’t know how many physical awards they give out, but if they give out multiples one is definitely going to Danny Schade, whose music made the world complete.

Thank you — all of you — for a hell of a first year doing this. Next year is, I hope, going to be even more exciting — I’ve gots me some plans!
