Here's something different! New Original MicroFiction! "Bookends, or Libromancy," by Seth Heasley, in both print and audio: hugospodcast.com/podcast/orig...

New Episode! Annihilation, by Jeff Vandermeer, with Mythius from the Nebulugo Book Club Discord (link in the show notes) hugospodcast.com/podcast/anni...

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

finally got to listen to this episode and highly enjoyed it. Glory Road is a book that I both like in parts and also frustrates me (some of which for reasons that align with Seth and James' discussion)

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...

New Episode! This time I discuss the 2025 Locus Award-winning novel The Man Who Saw Seconds, by Andrew Boldizar with a couple of my friends from the Nebulugo Book Club Discord, Sophia and JW. hugospodcast.com/podcast/the-...

New Take Me To Your Reader Episode! Assistant *to* the Regional Major (The Long Walk) pavementpodcast.com/archives/pod... We loved this one, so go check it out in theaters while you can. Recorded on location in Seth's backyard. Post credits audio includes Cotswold Way and a mystery meet up!

Bonus Episode! Great America In Dead World, by David Agranoff (interview with the author) I'm joined by @davidagranoff.bsky.social to discuss his new book, especially focusing on the interesting story of how it came to be. hugospodcast.com/podcast/grea...

I'm convinced "hot honey" is just pumpkin spice for men who make fun of people liking pumpkin spice.

New Episode! (Seth's Picks) Lightning, by Dean Koontz, with Megan Cutter (@mlcutter.bsky.social) and Colin Kuskie (@colink.bsky.social). It was fun talking about our first Koontz and revisiting an old favorite. hugospodcast.com/podcast/ligh...

New Take Me To Your Reader episode! A.I. Artificial Intelligence, based on "Supertoys Last All Summer Long," by Brian Aldiss I think this is one of our best episodes in quite a while. pavementpodcast.com/archives/pod...

New Episode! Snow Crash, by Neal Stephenson (Seth's Picks), with guest Leah Borden hugospodcast.com/podcast/snow...

New Take Me To Your Reader episode! The Wild Robot, by Peter Brown, with guest Peter Kuskie pavementpodcast.com/podcast/tmty...

Doing some maintenance on the TMTYR website, and I expect a bit of downtime. It'll be back up and running by the time our next episode posts, so don't delete the feed!

Edward Ashton (@edashtonwriting.bsky.social), author of Mickey7, was kind enough to join us on Take Me To Your Reader to talk about his background, his work, and particularly Mickey7 and the new movie Mickey-17. pavementpodcast.com/podcast/inte...

As a Gen X Star Wars fan, I have to recommend the Heir to the Empire episode (though I suppose it's from this year). The bit about remembering purchasing the book resonated with me. For me it was Waldenbooks in the University Center Mall in Anchorage.

Three-time finalist? I guess it's not a fluke, and it's still an amazing honor to be shortlisted with these other amazing podcasts! @hugogirlpodcast.bsky.social @worldbuildcast.bsky.social @eightdaysofdiana.bsky.social @mealofthorns.bsky.social @coodestreet.bsky.social

New Episode! Zoomed Out: Sports Science Fiction, with Christopher J. Garcia (@johnnyeponymous.bsky.social)!

New Take Me To Your Reader! "Plus or Minus 10" (Mickey7/Mickey-17) We go full spoilers, so pick up the book; it's a quick read. pavementpodcast.com/podcast/plus...

On this month's Take Me To Your Reader, we'll be discussing Mickey7 (novel) and Mickey-17 (film), so be sure to check those out. We pretty much go full spoilers right at the top, so grab the book and rip through it the way we all did. And go see the movie before it's gone.

Hugo Nominations close tonight, so be sure to back your favorites! Both Hugos There and Take Me To Your Reader are eligible as Fancasts.

New Take Me To Your Reader Episode! "The Bicentennial Man," by Isaac Asimov, adapted as Bicentennial Man (1999) pavementpodcast.com/podcast/6902/

Unfortunately, I'm not going to be able to do my "watch everything for the Oscars" this year. Just won't have the time. Also, I watched Emilia Perez. I wish I hadn't had the time. It's a big old bundle of WTF to me.
