The text version can be found here.

Read by Kate Baker

A remix of Johnson's Spar, in which all the graphic unwilling sex, of which there was a lot, is replaced with bacon.

Oh my gosh.

. . . I don't actually think that justifies the existence of the original. But. Wow.

I'm amused.

There's... rather a lot of bacon in that story.

James, I've been listening to ClarkesWorld podcasts lately. Problem is, there are a lot of stories but almost no info about them beyond the author's name on the Clarkesworld website. So far I've just been downloading them randomly (I'm trying to find the ones that are less doom-and-gloomy). So I was wondering - could you add, on your ClarkesWorld posts, your personal opinion of the stories, whether you enjoyed them or not?

FYI "Bits" by Naomy Kritzer which I listened to yesterday is an amusing story about aliens and sex toys (and no post-apocalypse whatsoever).

I will try to do a better job.
