By Elizabeth Bear. Read by Mur Lafferty (of The Takeover and The Murverse). First appeared in Fast Forward 1, ed. Lou Anders. Audible.com Promotion! Get your free audiobook at: http://audible.com/escapepodsff First, there s the pressure. A special kind of pressure, high under Tara s chin, that makes her feel heavy and light all at once. She kneels by the chair and leans across the edge, because if she faints, the chair will roll away and she won t choke. She s always careful. After the pressure she gets dizzy, and her vision gets kind of narrow, dark around the edges. It s hard to breathe, and it feels like there s something stuck in her throat. Prickles run up and down her back, down her arms where the pain used to be, and a warm fluid kind of feeling sloshes around inside her. She slides down, as things get dark, and then she starts to dream. But not like night time dreams. These are special. Rated R. Contains children engaging in extremely dangerous practices. Parental guidance STRONGLY recommended. Referenced Sites: Brave Men Run: A Novel of the Sovereign Era

By Christian Klaver. Read by Cunning Minx (of Polyamory Weekly). Audible.com Promotion! Get your free audiobook at: http://audible.com/escapepodsff In the civilized places closer to Hegemony space, you don’t see many bodies in the street in the first place. When you do, they’re always swarmed with sheriffs, marshals, constables, morticians and the like. Then the body gets moved fast, so as to not ruffle the civilized folk. The rest happens behind closed doors. Some towns don’t ever get bodies in the street. The only deaths are from sickness or accidents or old age. But I don’t tend to get to those towns so much, since they frown on my whoring profession. The towns I work in, everyone carries a gun. Being a pretty woman in my line of work, I carry two. Rated R. Contains sex, violence, profanity, the quick, and the dead.

By Lavie Tidhar. Read by Stephen Eley. First appeared in Flurb #2, ed. Rudy Rucker. Special closing music: Think For Yourself by George Hrab. I don t see why you necessarily think it leads to the Chrono area, Monty said, playing devil s advocate. It was a month earlier, at the usual place: The Trotsky, a damp, dark watering hole in a run-down part of town which, rumour had it, was once visited by the man himself, in his own dark, yet colourful, past. Where else would it lead, man? Morgan sparked up a joint and stared at him across the table. The smoke framed her face like the shape of a heart. I wouldn t be here – she waved her finger at him, and you wouldn t be here, if it wasn t something both of our respective organisations thought was worth pursuing. I smiled, admiring her strength and her energy. Monty scowled. Take that puppy-dog-in-love look off your face. It s embarrassing. And you, he said, addressing Morgan, should know better than to get your hopes up. After all, as the saying goes, they only ever bring back Shakespeare. Rated R. Contains some profanity, some violence, and communist propaganda. May be illegal in Louisiana. Referenced Sites: ClonePod

Receive your free audiobook at: http://audible.com/escapepodsff I wish to give you the opportunity to purchase a very valuable artifact from the great age of Ja ardi civilization, he said. We stole it from a rival tribe, who revered it as possessing divine powers. I am prepared to offer it to you at a very reasonable price. I rolled my eyes. If I had a nickel for every time someone tried to sell me an artifact with divine powers Zhee must have seen the eyeroll, for he hastened to add: It is reputed to bestow upon its owner the ability to create flowing rivers of God Juice. I tilted my head slightly to see if some sense might roll downhill from his words. Correct me if I m wrong, I said, sucking on the wedge of flesh-colored fruit, But isn t God Juice the stuff that caused your civilization to collapse? Zhee shifted, scratching the back of his head. Well yes. Rated R. Contains strong language and sexual tomfoolery.

2008 Hugo Nominee! By Ken MacLeod. Read by Stephen Eley. First appeared in The New Space Opera, ed. Gardner Dozois re as old as I am, you ll find your memory s not what it was. It s not that you lose memories. That hasn t happened to me or anyone else since the Paleocosmic Era, the Old Space Age, when people lived in caves on the Moon. My trouble is that I ve gained memories, and I don t know which of them are real. I was very casual about memory storage back then, I seem to recall. This could happen to you too, if you re not careful. So be warned. Do as I say, not as I did. Some of the tales about me contradict each other, or couldn t possibly have happened, because that s how I told them in the first place. Others I blame on the writers and tellers. They make things up. I ve never done that. If I ve told stories that couldn t be true, it s because that s how I remember them. Here s one. Rated R. Contains profanity, nudity, and in flagrante delicto. Audible.com Promotion!

By Jeffrey R. DeRego. Read by Nuri (of CandyCorn Studios and Artist Alley). Closing Music: Juzt Mizunderztood by Norm Sherman. My head throbs. I think about the mess in the fridge, the heaps of crap in the flat while I force the clumps of wet clothes into the dryers. As far as I know I am the only Union member who works outside the system, the only one tasked specifically with fighting crime, secretly, of course. Darksider put the program together with one of the Luminaries as a way to explore expanding our role in the maintenance of Normal society. He chose me specifically because I am the only super-agile who is also an orphan. Therefore, I won t be tempted to throw my costume in a dumpster and make a break for mom and dad. Communication with the Union ended seven months ago. Darksider was supposed to make sure that a stipend was deposited into a bank account under my phony name every month. But that stopped too. I don t know why. I tried everything to make contact short of walking up to the Boston Pyramid and knocking. Not that it would have done any good since none of the regular Union knows I even exist. Rated R. Contains sordid occupations, drug use, and violence. Welcome to the city.

By Robert Silverberg. Read by Stephen Eley. This much is reality: Schwartz sits comfortably cocooned passive, suspended in a first-class passenger rack aboard a Japan Air Lines rocket, nine kilometers above the Coral Sea. And this much is fantasy: the same Schwartz has passage on a shining starship gliding silkily through the interstellar depths, en route at nine times the velocity of light from Betelgeuse IX to Rigel XXI, or maybe from Andromeda to the Lesser Magellanic. Rated R. Contains some sex, some drug use. It s a Silverberg story. Audible.com Promotion! Receive your free audiobook at: http://audiblepodcast.com/escapepod Referenced Sites: GeekLabel

By Mike Resnick. Read by Stephen Eley. First appeared in Jim Baen s Universe, June 2007. Okay, said Fishbait. He tossed a ball to the Big Guy. Let s try a little one-on-one. Ralph, let s see what you can do against Jacko here. The Big Guy took a look at me, his face totally expressionless. I moved forward to lean on him a little, just enough to make contact and see which way he was going to move when he began his drive to the basket, but before I got close enough to touch him he d already raced by me and stuffed the ball through the hoop. Again, said Fishbait. Rated R. Contains strong language and testosterone. Today s Sponsor: Infected by Scott Sigler Referenced Events: Penguicon: April 18-20, 2008 Sex 2.0: April 12, 2008

By Stephanie Burgis. Read by MA in PA (of Better Late Than Never). First appeared in Forgotten Worlds, July 2006. Closing music: I Feel Fantastic by Jonathan Coulton. The first Jacqui wrote me out a list of instructions thirty pages long. It contained all her history with Robert, in detail. It gave me a list of all the things to say and do when he’s hurt, or angry, or depressed. I think she was the perfect wife. When I think about how hard it is to measure up to her, my stomach feels twitchy. I’d been doing this job for three months. It was supposed to get easier with time, not harder. Rated G. Contains relationship drama. Today s Sponsor: Infected by Scott Sigler

By Robert Silverberg. Read by Stephen Eley. First appeared in Fantasy love ] with Miss Lisabeth Calkins. I beseech compassionate members of H. sapiens to speak favorably of me to her. I am loyal, trustworthy, reliable, devoted, and extremely intelligent. I would endeavor to give her stimulating companionship and emotional fulfillment [ happiness ] in all respects within my power. Permit me to explain the pertinent circumstances. Rated R. Contains explicit anatomical description and non-human sexual activity. Related Links: Steve s LiveJournal (cleaning updates)

By Matthew Wayne Selznick. Read by Scott Sigler (of Earthcore, Ancestor, Infected, The Rookie). Yarborough led them through the impromptu village of broad white tents, rows of outhouses, sensor towers, and heavy weapons installations that had obliterated the turf of the athletic field. They stopped at the fence on the edge of the hilltop. You can get a pretty good look at the swath, here. On a day without monsters, it would have been a nice view. You could see most of the town center, and all the way to Pacific Coast Highway the misty ocean beyond. A wide, flat, smoking scar of ruin cut from the water to a shopping center half a mile inland. Rated R. Contains profanity and giant monster violence. Referenced Sites: Knitwitch s Sci-Fi & Fantasy Zone on Talkshoe

By James Trimarco. Read by Graydancer (of The Ropecast). First appeared in Glorifying Terrorism, ed. Farah Mendlesohn. Closing song: Think For Yourself by George Hrab Not long after that, Antonio had an appointment with his curator, Yoshi, at the Department of Human Heritage. Antonio explained his situation in the Tyrranean language. So you re unsatisfied with your role as a beggar, Yoshi said. That s hardly surprising. The unemployed of the early twenty-first century were also unhappy. Your emotions are true to period, that s all. But it s all wrong, Antonio insisted. I did well in school. I studied to be an engineer. If this was the real Italy, someone like me wouldn t end up like this. Yoshi s mouth curved into the sterile non-smile of a bureaucrat with no time for sympathy. Rated R. Contains strong themes of violence and terrorism, strong language, and some sexual content. Referenced Sites: UK Terrorism Act 2006 Graydancer.com Stranger Things

By Jetse de Vries. Read by Jack Mangan (of Jack Mangan s Deadpan). First appeared in Hub Magazine Issue #2. Unable to keep my distance, I walk up to three classmates interacting with one such a BIKO. The pictures are fuzzy, the colours ill-defined and the reaction time tediously slow. However, the letters appearing are large and easily readable, and after all three kids have been asked to introduce themselves the program equally divides its attention to each of them, making them take turns while the other two can effortlessly follow what s going on. But man, is it slow. The display makes your eyes water and would have any western whizz kid tuning the screen properties like crazy. Still, the real wonder is that those pell-mell constructions are doing anything at all. Furthermore, those African kids have nothing to compare them with, so are uncritically happy with what they ve got. As dinner time closes in Liona has to wrestle most kids away from their new toys and promises that first thing tomorrow they will after school hours start making new BIKOs, so that eventually every classmate will have one. The whole class cheers and Liona s smile doesn t leave her face for the rest of the evening. Rated R. Contains sexual innuendo, some strong language, and an R-rated bit of podcast feedback at the end.

By Nancy Kress Read by Stephen Eley. First appeared in Asimov s Science Fiction, April 2007. What exactly happened in the seventh grade? I found myself intensely curious, which I covered by staring at the board and making a move. He told me, still unembarrassed, in exhaustive detail. Then he added, It should be possible to adjust brain chemicals to eliminate the static. To unclutter the mind. It should! Well, I said, dropping from insight to my more usual sarcasm, maybe you ll do it at Harvard, if you don t get sidetracked by some weird shit like ballet or model railroads. Checkmate, Allen said.

By Jennifer Pelland Read by Stephen Eley. First appeared in Tales of the Unanticipated, November 2005. Alex stumbled from the confessional, through the church, all the way to the curb. He had to get out of there. He couldn t sit in the house of God anymore. God didn t want him there. That was abundantly clear. Forty-one years of perfect mass attendance. Six years as an altar boy. A childhood spent praying for his grandmother s soul to hasten her time in Purgatory. A spotless record of weekly confessions for the past twelve years. He d even stopped having sex with Alison two years ago after she d gotten a tubal ligation so he wouldn t be committing fornication. He d followed the rules when he could, and asked for forgiveness when he couldn t. But none of it mattered. He would die unshriven. Unless he didn t die. Rated R. It s our Halloween episode.

By Mike Resnick. Read by Stephen Eley. First appeared in Unauthorized Autobiographies and Other Curiosities, 1984. Of course, even if we had met before, they couldn t recognize me now. I know. I ve spent almost three years trying to find out who I was before I got Erased but along with what they did to my brain, they gave me a new face and wiped my fingerprints clean. I m a brand new man: two years, eleven months, and seventeen days old. I am (fanfare and trumpets, please!) William Jordan. Not a real catchy name, I ll admit, but it s the only one I ve got these days. I had another name once. They told me not to worry about it, that all my memories had been expunged and that I couldn t dredge up a single fact no matter how hard I tried, not even if I took a little Sodium-P from a hypnotist, and after a few weeks I had to agree with them which didn t mean that I stopped trying. Erasures never stop trying. Rated R. Contains violent crime, violent imagery, and themes of violence.

By Bud Sparhawk. Read by Paul Haring (of Escape Pod Classic). First appeared in Asimov s Science Fiction, March 2005. Survivors isn t exactly the word. What they found were sixteen bodies without arms, legs, and most organs. What remained were essentially heads hooked up to life support and fueled by oxygenated glucose pumps. There were a couple hundred strands of glass fibre running from the ship s walls into each skull, into each brain, into each soul. Four of the sixteen were still functioning alive is not a word to describe their condition. There was no hesitation on the part of Command. They ordered everyone, except combat types like us, from the most likely targets. Humanity couldn t allow any more people to become components for the Shardie offense. But civilians never listen. Farmers were the worse, hanging onto their little plots and crops until somebody dragged them away, kicking and screaming at the injustice of it all. That s why we were here. Forty settlers had stupidly refused to be evacuated from New Mars. Forty we didn t know about until we got that one brief burst. My mission was to make certain that they didn t become forty armless, legless, gutless, screamless weapon components. Rated R. Contains strong violence and heavy moral themes.

By Neal Asher. Read by Stephen Eley. AI Geronamid has need of a subject for a scientific trial. This trial may kill you, in which case it would be considered completion of sentence. Should you survive, all charges against you will be dropped. And the nature of this trial? Cephalic implantation of Csorian node. Okay, I agree, though I have no idea what Csorian node is. The Golem stood and as she did so the door slid open. Daes glanced up at the security eye in the corner of the cell and stood also. He thought, briefly, about escape, but knew he stood no chance. His companion might look like a teenage girl but he knew she was strong enough to rip him in half. You didn t tell me. What s a Csorian node? If we knew that with any certainty we would not be carrying out this trial, replied the Golem. Rated R. Contains scenes of strong graphic violence and sexual assault.

All right, so I m chasing these things down the street, and there s more showing up all the time, so now there s like ten of them. I have no idea how I m supposed to wrangle all these space monkeys, and right about then is when this dude comes swooping down out of the sky, wearing this blue costume with a big yellow star on his chest. Another hero, Jill says. Guy named Astro, I say. I d run into him a few times before, back when GoDS 1.0 was still together. He would be fighting this monster - that was his thing, fighting these random space monsters - and we d show up to help out. I thought he was okay, but the other guys didn t like him much. Why not? Jill asks. Well, he was kind of a dork. No offense, I say, turning to Dave. Dave waves it off. Rated PG. Contains some profanity, some scatology, and a lot of silly superhero violence.
