The Sword and Laser discussion

The Hugos are here and lots of very deserving winners. A roguish story bundle. Are TV shows worse than an ending? Our first thoughts on How High We Go in the Dark, and our last thoughts on Rivers of London.

Welcome to Canada, Veronica! BC is such a beautiful part of the world. Maybe we should read a Canadian SFF author to celebrate!

If you haven't lived this far north before though, the nights get pretty long in the late Fall and Winter. I don't mind personally, but my wife grew up in an equatorial region, and she is not a fan. Light therapy lamps are a pretty popular solution. Just a heads-up!

This episode has yet to arrive in my pod catcher (The Apple Podcast app)

I know I can listen to it directly from the link above, but it is less convenient.

Good to know it wasn't just me. I thought something was wrong with my phone.

Was the rss not published everywhere? I got it in Pocketcast. About the time it was mentioned here.

I finally found a great bookshop here in Bangkok with a healthy Fantasy and Science Fiction section. There were some authors on the self I was pleasantly surprised to see. The mall is very confusing, so it might take a bit of time to find it again.

Great news!
Most important thing to establish when you move to a new place - the location of the nearest decent bookshop!

I'm aware and planning to get a light!

Hmm, I don't think I did anything differently!

Welcome to Canada!

We'll blame Apple 😉

The most recent episode available on Apple podcast app is 443.

I ended up listening direct from Sound cloud

^ I always download direct to my computer. Double click and go.

Yeah, the episode didn't show up on my phone either -- I had to download it in iTunes on my PC, then sync from my PC over to my phone. FWIW, it wasn't the only podcast that happened to. A couple of the impacted shows were weekly, so I'll be curious to see what happens when new episodes drop in a day or two.

My podcatcher caught this episode perfectly (I use Overcast fwiw)

The episode finally showed up on my phone (iPhone 12) this morning.

I wonder what the fix was (number of episode limit?).

I didn't know how to change that! So I just tried pinging the iTunes feed.
