A few meeting ago I said that I’d send out an email highlighting a couple of short story podcasts. Instead of filling your inboxes, here are a couple of great podcasts and recommended episodes.
The DrabbleCast is a self titled, "weekly flash fiction audio-magazine that brings strange stories by strange authors to strange listeners, like yourself." While I find many of the stories hit or miss, I've gotten more hits than misses. Here's a few episodes I liked:
Ep 135 "Hello," said the stick - This was the first Drabble Cast I listened to. On top of being a good story, I found the subject matter interesting.
Ep 141 On the Destruction of Copenhagen by the Warmachines of the Merfolk - Come on, Merfolk Warmachines. What more do you want?
Ep 146 Teddy Bears and Tea Parties - A really good horror story. Don't let the title fool you, you wouldn't want a little kid listening to this one.
Another weekly SciFi podcast. I don't think that they have as many hits as the DrabbleCast, but still they are pretty good. If you're interested, they have sister podcasts PseudoPod (horror) and PodCastle (Fantasy).
Ep 235 On the Human Plan - A fantasy world that is past it's peak of wonders. The story asks you, "If we end death, do we end life?"
Ep 226 Pirate Solutions - Rated ARRRR
