Dark Pods – Two Audiostories
Here are a couple of dark treats before the holiday spirit consumes us all. Not for younger listeners!
From Escape Pod,
“Me and My Shadow” 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.
A dark story about a personality better left buried.

From Pseudopod,
“Finding Allison” by Glen Krish
Read by Alasdair Stuart
Disarming and cruel. Two words could sum up Allison’s smile, and that’s all he had left of her. Her smile hid right behind his eyes, pushing at his brain like a tumor — that angled, curt, and thick-lipped smile. Even the day before she left, they seemed collectively twined together, a seamless mass of flesh, two shadows of one body. Now he was alone with a gun in his lap.
Another dark story about personality, but in a very different way.

Beam Me Up podcast archives 2 dozen Science Fiction stories
Holy cow! Paul Cole of the Beam Me Up radio show/podcast has written into say:
“I am archiving stories off the podcast (I have limited space on podomatic so eventually I have to pare the oldest ‘cast off the roll) they are just the stories from the podcast (a lot of the material in the podcast is news and ages out quick)”
It think that’s awesome, he’s absolutely right, the news material doesn’t age well and the unabridged short stories and novelletes will all be listenable for decades (and centuries) to come. You can find the archive of stories HERE, or below:

Beam Me Up podcasts Mike Resnick’s Old MacDonald Has A Farm
Beam Me Up and host Paul Cole are offering up: Old MacDonald Had A Farm. A Mike Resnick that was story first published in Asimov’s Science Fiction magazine in 2002. It was an Asimov’s Readers Poll winner and a Hugo Nominee!
MacDonald was a Colorado native who emigrated to New Zealand’s South Island, bought a forty-thousand-hectare farm, and hired a lot of technicians over the years. If anyone wondered why a huge South Island farm didn’t have any sheep, they probably just figured he had worked out some kind of tax dodge.
