From high atop the Coode Street Motel Six, deep in the Waldorf Room,  Gary and I fired up the podcasting equipment to bring you episode 101 where, finally, we come to an appreciation of which convention we correspond to, while discussing the recently released Campbell Memorial Award ballot, the SF Hall of Fame, and other things.  As always, we hope you enjoy the podcast.

It’s our 100th episode and our 2nd Anniversary! Bereft of even so much as a good champagne-cork-popping sound effect we discuss the podcast, the recently announced Locus Awards ballot, consensus in science fiction and who is the new Dean of Science Fiction, and touch on what we’ve been reading lately.

We had all sorts of grandiose plans for the 100th episode, but in the end it’s just the two of us, rambling. We do want to thank all of our listeners, guests, commentators and friends – anyone who’s said anything nice about the podcast at all – for your enthusiasm and support. That’s what will get us through the next 100 episodes!

On the cusp of our 100th episode Gary and I fire up Skype to talk about year’s bests, awards, genre and other stuff. As always, we hope you enjoy the podcast!

After taking time off last week, Gary and I are back with Nnedi Okorafor,  award winning author of Who Fears Death, Akata Witch and many other wonderful books  and stories to discuss African science fiction, Nigeria, the World Fantasy Award and much, much more.  As always, we hope you enjoy the podcast and will see you next week when we resume our normal weekly schedule!
