Just listened to Alasdair and Marguerite’s metacast on the state of Escape Artists during the current crisis, and wanted to say thanks.
I started listening to EA podcasts soon after the 2016 US presidential election to help ease my anxiety (and frankly, to escape from reality). I’ve listened to every single episode of all four podcasts at least once since then, and have participated in voting and commenting in the latest PseudoPod flash fiction contest. EA has become an important part of my life, and the metacast helps to remind me of why.
I’m glad (but not surprised) to hear you are focused on making sure that people are safe and healthy, both physically and emotionally. It means a lot to me as a listener. And I’m relieved to hear that as of now, no one in the EA family has been diagnosed as having the virus. Here’s hoping that situation continues.
If there’s any volunteer work you could use to keep EA going, please don’t hesitate to say so.
Best wishes to all, and please stay safe.
