This one stands out ! Interesting themes, hints of a weird yet somehow credible future and most of all sheer fun, all in a nut shell of a story. More ! More !

I’ll echo the positive comments of others. What really made me smile was Evo and Sheila as The Farm. I reminded me of Zippo in the Firesign Theater’s “Everything You Know Is Wrong”.

Holy crap, that was awesome! You should definitely make this a con tradition in the spirit of KoDT live reads. Well executed by everybody and thoroughly enjoyable!

Oh, and it was a great story, too! ^_^

I like the story, and I’m glad you took the chance of doing a “live” cast, but I was offput by use of an American cast in what was clearly an English story. Next time perhaps, something that better matches your brave cast of volunteers.

I've always thought that are beloved EP, would one day morph into (or spawn) a radio-drama-like podcast. Were writers would turn in scripts, rather than a traditional stories.

If this was indeed the start of a new venture - I enjoyed it. If however it was not the start of a new venture, I still enjoyed it.

I remember trying to read this story years ago, but getting interupted and not finishing it.

But what a great way to finally hear it; well done Escape Pod!

Having the live track was strange. It seemed me and the audience were always backwards. I was listening raptly and everyone was finding something funny and when it got REALLY quiet I found something to laugh about (of course I have no idea how much laugh track was cut in the end) I found the ending rather sad though. It killed the levity of the rest of the story completely.

Ooh, uh, audiences. This brings back bad memories of the Decoder Ring adverts, with an enforced laugh track. Nasty.

This is the best EP I have ever eaten! Seriously after 205 EP Pod casts I have finally found my favorite!!!

I love stories with tons of implied technology, themes and inside stuff.

Just, Wow! this one was really neat and I love for a story to make me feel this way. the only thing that could have made it better is for the original cast of Monty Python's Flying Circus to have read it. Not to say this cast was not Great because they were! I tell you Thanks! 3 times!

What delightful playfulness with language and contemporary currents in science and technology!

I especially love the image of the guy getting baked with his dog. :}

This was an enjoyable listen. Perhaps not as amusing as “Elvis in the Attic”, but still pretty good. A good job on a live recording (without a dress rehersal:)

Escape Pod with a laugh track. Yay! This story was too goofy for me. But I liked the talking stoner dog.
