By now we've all heard about Escape Artists financial difficulties. If there was ever a time for Lord of the Rings metaphors, it is now.

The Podcastle is under siege! The hordes of bankruptcy scrabble at its gates and threaten to silence those stories which shine through our mp3 players every week. The Escape Artist beacons are lit, the call for aid is sent. Only we listeners can marshal the forces of light keep this bastion of storytelling flying high. I say, in my best epic fantasy voice, you have my credit card!

The rock and pool / Is nice and cool, so juicy-sweet! / Our only wish / To catch a fish, so juicy-sweet!

Wait, I may be doing this wrong.

My very first post is to let the Escape Pod world know that I found setting up my regular donation a wonderful thing.  Hope you join and keep this great podcast going.

Been listening for awhile, just got around to donating.  I wish I'd done so earlier, I feel so guilty.
Love you guys and feel much better now that I'm supporting something I've enjoyed so much and has kept my sanity during long hours at work.
