Podcast: Writing Excuses - any interest?
One of the only podcasts I consistently listen to is Writing Excuses, a 15-minute weekly writing instruction podcast with a focus on SF. Is anyone else into it? I know we have a whole bunch of writers on the site, and if people were down it might be a neat way to talk about the writing process and the tips and prompts that they give.

The Thrilling Adventure Hour
Are there many/any listeners to The Thrilling Adventure Hour podcast here? Would there be interest if I started posting TAH episodes on here? If so, should I start with recent episodes or from the beginning?
Some of the recent episodes aren't exactly accessible to newcomers, and the show is probably going to be winding down soon, so I'm torn between starting with the most recent episodes; starting from the beginning; or doing a re-listen that follows a single sequential storyline (eg. Sparks Nevada).
Podcast: Criminal: Episode 21: Bloodlines
Julius Robinson had killed for revenge before, and so when his sister was brutally murdered in her sleep last year, he says he planned to "get" the killer. He felt like his family expected him to get revenge, because that's what he'd always done, both in and out of prison. But when he learned that the killer was actually his 17-year-old nephew, he struggled against his family's expectations and his own.<

This week, producer Stephanie Foo talks about her own and other asian women's experience with online dating. [more inside]
Theory of Everything?
I was considering posting ToE's recent two-part series on the growing popularity of French wine in China to the Blue, but I think it would be much better suited to FanFare: people can listen at their own pace, etc. And ToE is a pretty good series in general and would mesh well with the other podcasts already on FanFare.
Podcast: Criminal: Episode 18: 695BGK
Police officer John Edwards was patrolling a quiet neighborhood in Bellaire, Texas when he saw an SUV driven by two young African-American men. It was just before 2am on December 31, 2008. Edwards followed the SUV and ran the license plate number. When his computer indicated that the SUV was stolen, Edwards drew his gun and told the two men to get down on the ground. It wasn't until later that he realized he'd typed the wrong license plate number into his computer. He was off by one digit. By the time he realized his mistake, one of the men had already been shot in the chest at close range. But there's a major difference between this shooting case and so many others that we've heard about recently. This is the story of Robbie Tolan.
Podcast: My Brother, My Brother And Me: MBMBaM 246: Face 2 Face: Hot Beans

Should we /can we combine the Better Call Saul podcast w/the FF post?
Another oddly-specific BCS question:
I'm one of the people who have been referring to the podcast in the regular show threads, but I've been doing so sparingly because it feels kinds of weird to talk about it too much. On the other hand, having a podcast-only discussion seems even weirder. Thoughts? [more inside]
Podcast: Song Exploder: The Long Winters - The Commander Thinks Aloud
On February 1, 2003, the Space Shuttle Columbia broke apart while reentering the earth's atmosphere. John Roderick, singer and songwriter of The Long Winters, wrote "The Commander Thinks Aloud" about that fateful moment. This episode was made from an interview I did with John Roderick in front of a live audience in Seattle, where we discussed how and why he made this song. [more inside]
