Hello all, ye olde editor here!

If there was a particular episode of PSEUDOPOD from the stretch of May 1, 2012 (episode #280 - "The Meat Forest") to April 30, 2013 (episode #331 - "The Ninth Skeleton") that you particularly liked, please consider nominating it for a PARSEC podcasting award (the general podcast itself has already been nominated)

This stretch of time contains some of our best received episodes, including

"The Meat Forest"
"Kill Screen"
"Final Girl Theory"
"The American Dead"
"Coming Soon To A Theatre Near You"
"Just Outside Our Windows, Deep Inside Our Walls"
"The Last Man After The War"
"What Happens When You Wake Up In The Night"
"Cell Call"
"Cry Room"
"Red Rubber Gloves"
... and many more  (for a complete list, see the episode list on Wikipedia:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudopod_%28podcast%29

... but please note that the list has not been recently updated and so these un-noted episodes are also open for nomination: #328 - "The Suicide Witch", #329 - "Red Rubber Gloves", #330 - "Flash On The Borderlands XV: At Your Service!" and  #331 - "The Ninth Skeleton")

Also note: the majority of specific Pseudopod episodes would be nominated as "Best Speculative Fiction Story: Small Cast (Short Form)" with FLASH ON THE BORDERLANDS and multi-voice episodes like "Kill Screen" possibly falling under "Best Speculative Fiction Story: Large Cast (Short Form)"

CONGRATULATIONS PSEUDOPOD! There's a reason your show was the one that first introduced me to EA.

I don't post this to steal your thunder, just because it's related and made me laugh.

I suppose because of you, I could add a claim to that article that I'm related to more nominations by merit of proximity... :P

Did they have ChildMolesterCon yet? I totally haven't been following this like I should. We may already all be big winners for all I know.
