Episode 102: Live with Gary K. Wolfe! May 20, 2012

Show notes

With the sun slowly setting over the Coode Street Motel 6, Gary and I headed for the Waldorf Room to record episode 102 of the podcast. For the first time in two years we had show notes, we had plans, and we had news: surely nothing could go wrong! Surely! We had much to discuss:

the Nebula Awards winners, which had just been announced;
feedback from Cheryl Morgan on Episode 101 and whether women write rigorous SF;
gender and whether the gender of the author affects how we perceive the genre of their work;
and more! Really.

For those seeking show notes, we did discuss all of the above, along with mention of the Tiptree Centenary (time to start planning!), Gary's upcoming attendance at Wiscon and Readercon, and other stuff. However, this is the Coode St Podcast. It soon became clear Gary had not *read* the show notes, that we couldn't fit in everything we'd planned and...well, we did the best we could. As always, we hope you enjoy the podcast. Next week, Wiscon!

Episode 101: Live with Gary K. Wolfe! May 12, 2012

Show notes

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.

Episode 100: Live with Gary K. Wolfe! May 05, 2012

Show notes

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!

Chicon 7, the 70th Annual World Science Fiction Convention, has announced the nominees for the 2012 Hugo Awards (see list here).

As always, we hope you enjoy the podcast!

Episode 96: Live with Gary K. Wolfe! Apr 05, 2012

With Gary now safely home from Florida and all of that ICFA craziness, we sat down to discuss recent events. Most prominent on our minds was Christopher Priest's passionate but somewhat controversial discussion of the Arthur C. Clarke Award nominees. As always, we hope you enjoy the podcast!

Episode 93: Live with Gary K. Wolfe and Peter Straub! Mar 17, 2012

Show notes

With the Gene Wolfe event about to hit full swing in sunny Chicago, all sorts of fun things are happening in the windy city. This morning (Perth time) our good friend Peter Straub was visiting Gary's stylish Chicago pied-à-terre, so we fired up the podcast and had a pre-dinner chat about literary boundaries, modern horror, writing, Caitlin Kiernan and much much more. As always, our thanks to Peter for joining us. We hope that you'll enjoy the podcast. Next week: ICFA!
