I've been able to catch up on some older episodes of Escape Pod while exercising on the elliptical machine after work.

Tonight I listened to “Fandom for Robots.” It’s a lovely and fun audio story, not only for use of non-human characters, but catching how fans find community and collaborate around all sorts of fandoms

“Humans Die, Stars Fade” is another brilliant and moving story using anthropomorphism.
