of Danu choose the mighty Bodb Dearg to be their
King.

Arden
We read a listener email and talk
about some of the podcasts that we have been listening to. Ruthie
also mentions how Scott Sigler's tremendous and compulsive book
Infected has been making her itch!

Nocturnal
Scott
Sigler
Something lives deep beneath the
streets of San Fransisco. Something that has been there for
centuries, something that comes out at night ... to feed on the
dregs of society. A sub-culture, with its own myths, its own
legends of leader named The King that will lead them out of
bondage, and their own demon, a hunting shadow known only as
Savior. Read the book or listen on iTunes.

Shallow Thoughts
Christiana
Ellis
Christiana Ellis' surreal, daily thoughts on
many subjects. Humourous, surreal and highly entertaining these
small podcasts are a worthy addition to your podcast playlists.
Listen to the, now sadly pod-faded, Christiana's
Shallow Thoughts.
