I've finally caught up on Escapepod. I still have a hard time believing it - that was a lot of stories, and most of them nice to wonderful.

From last year's bunch of stories, my three favourites were:

Joolie and Irdl
Murder or a Duck
In a Manner of Speaking.

The first two are Hugo-eligible, and I think they'll end up on my list. The third I'd nominate in a heartbeat, but unfortunately it is too old. However, if you have the time and like good stories, go check it out - though let me warn you that it is a bit sad. (If you don't like audio productions, you can also read the stories on the website if you follow the link.)
