CBC Radio will broadcast and podcast Robert J. Sawyer’s Rollback

SFFaudio News

CBC Radio One - Between  The Covers podcastRobert J. Sawyer has a contract in hand from CBC Radio One’s Between The Covers program. BTC will broadcasting Robert J. Sawyer’s novel ROLLBACK! I asked Heather Brown, a producer at Between The Covers for more details on the distribution method and she had this to say:

“Yes, we will be podcasting as well as broadcasting Robert J. Sawyer’s novel ROLLBACK. At the moment there is no firm date for the broadcast/podcast although it won’t be presented until much later this year and perhaps not til early next year. The book will be abridged somewhat but Mr. Sawyer will be a full participant in those choices.”

That’s very cool! I’ve long enjoyed Between The Covers, but it was their broadcast of Connie Willis’ Bellwether that cemented my love of this long running CBC Radio show. We’ll keep you updated on the broadcast and podcasting dates for this.

Radio Drama Revival: Audio Gothic – Brad’s Book Of Lies

SFFaudio Online Audio

Radio Drama RevivalEpisode 70 of Radio Drama Revival features another tale from Crazy Dog Audio Theatre‘s Audio Gothic. This is a radio drama collection that aired on RTE (Radio Ireland) back in October 2007. I continue to be blown away by Roger Gregg’s work, and this story, Brad’s Book Of Lies, is no exception. RDR host, Fred Greenhalgh, calls it “amazingly clever and poignant” and I agree completely. Have a listen and add soon you’ll be adding your own accolades!
