Drabblecast – A Nice Jewish Golem June 11th, 2012
Things have been very busy for your editor, as well as some of the readers working on stories. So while we’re running behind on a new podcast, here’s a link of interest. It’s anthropomorphism of a different kind than talking animals, but is still an entertaining listen. I admit I have a soft spot for stories of artificial life as well.
Drabblecast, the weird-fiction podcast has a fun story, A Nice Jewish Golem, that shows that no matter what you’re made of, it’s never easy finding a nice girl to bring home to mother.
“Mrs. Levine, it is hard enough for someone to find the right person to love in the world, even with all the people in it. For Yeshua, it is almost impossible. Would you have him fall in love with a human girl and pine for her until his heart broke and we would have to erase
the letter that gives him life? Reduce him back to a lifeless thing?â€
AD 042 – Michael Bard Memorial March 30th, 2012
Tonight’s story is a memorial for the author Michael Bard. Michael W. “Morgan†Bard was an avid follower and participant in the science fiction, anthropomorphic animals, and transformation fandoms, as well as a prolific writer. Friends remember collaborating on story ideas and long talks on subjects ranging the wide gamut of the genres. He had a great love for ideas and stories, and that shines through in his writing. Michael lived in Toronto, and his love for that city and his Canadian pride are also evident in many of his stories.

AD 041 – Ohio February 6th, 2012
Nothing compares to a river… Lamb’s story is a lyrical tale of life and loss and finding your way in the world amidst family tragedy and the journey of adolescence.
Lamb notes that this story is dedicated to Eldyran, who probably didn’t know what he did for me in my bizarre time of need. Thank you, coyote.
