One of my favourite podcasts, Escape Pod, currently offers its one hundredth weekly show. Congratulations Steve & Co, that is so impressive! I've listened to almost every one of the shows, offering excellent short stories in the science fiction and fantasy genres. Number 100 is Isaac Asimov's classic "Nightfall". And it's not just about the stories: Steve Eley's intros and outros are always a treat to hear. Dear Reader, check out Escape Pod's web site and have a listen. It's free, and donations are voluntary. Highly recommended!
