New Episode! Foundational Fantasy: Beauty, by Robin McKinley, with guest Megan Cutter hugospodcast.com/podcast/foun...

I don't know who needs to hear this, but it's okay to record a short form video without holding the little microphone. It's not cute. We all know there's a mic. We don't need to see it.

Man, whoever is switching the video for the Home Run Derby needs to consider a different line of work. The whole job is to show the pitcher and hitter, either from behind the batter or behind the pitcher (should be 80% behind the pitcher). After the ball is in the air, switch away.

New Episode! It's the first in our new series about graphic novel adaptations, starting with Supergirl! pavementpodcast.com/archives/pod...

I've been really sick and barely able to eat over the last week. I ended up having Cream of Wheat for breakfast, and now I'm wondering if anyone wants to meet me at the roller rink, play some Ms. Pac-Man, and then I'd like to hit Pay & Save and look at Star Wars action figures?

New Take Me To Your Reader episode! The remake/re-adaptation of Stephen King's The Running Man pavementpodcast.com/archives/pod...

Excellent episode as usual! And I love the plot recaps because there are a lot of these books that have faded in my memory.

Now that the baseball season is over (congrats to the Dodgers), I can now root whole heartedly for the team I know and commonly refer to as the Football Mariners. Go Seahawks! Also the throwback uniforms are the absolute best.

So you're a Hugo reader. You've listened to all my episodes and @hugogirlpodcast.bsky.social. You've kept up with @hugonauts.bsky.social and now you're out of podcasts. Well, you're in luck! @klaxoncomms.com is bringing you Hugo History, a new monthly podcast! And it's terrific, so check it out!

New Episode! Glory Road, by Robert A. Heinlein (1964 Hugo Nominee), with guest James Hedrick from the Something About Dragons Podcast/Blog Is it Fantasy? Is it Science Fiction? Is it tons of fun? Is it disturbingly regressive in parts? All of the above! hugospodcast.com/podcast/glor...

While rehearsing in my friends' garage, I felt silently judged by the robot head that was watching us. (No idea what it actually was, so I'm choosing to believe it was a robot.)

New Take Me To Your Reader episode! (Yes, two in a month!) We saw the new Frankenstein adaptation in theaters and we recommend you do the same. It's really, really good! pavementpodcast.com/archives/pod...

I'm kind of behind the Blue Jays for the World Series this year (mostly because they eliminated my favorite team), but Good Lord if I have to hear one more whiny Jays fan (or manager) talk about how Springer got booed when he got hit by a pitch, I'm buying some Dodgers gear. It didn't happen.

Next episode will be about Robert A. Heinlein's Glory Road, with James from the Something About Dragons Blog/Podcast: somethingaboutdrag.wixsite.com/something-ab... Upcoming titles: - Annihilation, by Jeff VanderMeer - Termination Shock, by Neal Stephenson - The Bone Clocks, by David Mitchell

New Take Me To Your Reader episode! The new (terrible but fun) War of the Worlds movie! pavementpodcast.com/archives/pod...
