The Future And You

Is an

Award-winning show

 

---

 

It has received the 

Parsec Award

for

“Best Speculative Fiction News Podcast

 

 

 

Stephen Euin Cobb, the host of The Future And You, was presented with a Parsec Award in the category "Best Speculative Fiction News Podcast" at the first annual Parsec Award ceremony “for excellence in podcasting” which was held on September 2, 2006 in Atlanta GA, at “the world’s largest popular media convention:” Dragon*Con

 

In his acceptance speech, Stephen thanked the podcasters who had encouraged him to start a podcast back when he knew nothing about what a podcast was or how podcasting was done: Mur Lafferty, Tee Morris, and Rich Sigfrit, and he also thanked his photographer/assistant/sister, Peggy Gregory, who has helped him through his many promotional travels to science fiction conventions, book signings and TV appearances.

What the

Media are saying

about

The Future And You

 

Read the full quotes these were sliced from

 

 

 

“Thought provoking and edgy”

Jo Leutton

612 ABC Brisbane

 

 

“…credible guests, covers a wide range of topics.”

GARY ROBBINS

The Orange County Register

 

 

“…broaden and challenge your view of tomorrow... 

It’s currently the podcast I look most forward to getting.”

Trends and Issues in Extension

Ohio State University

The Future And You

is teamed with

Jim Baen’s Universe Magazine

 

 

 

As host of The Future And You, I am proud to announce that this podcast is officially allied with the largest and, I believe, best online science fiction and fantasy magazine in the world: Jim Baen's Universe

 

I would like to emphasize that I have not given them any control or ownership of this podcast, nor have they given me any control or ownership of their magazine.  This alliance, however, will provide The Future And You with a subtle yet very important benefit.  Like winning the Parsec award, it will give this show additional credibility.  It will make this show that much more an "insider" within the science fiction and fantasy industry. 

 

Which, dear listener, will yield a direct benefit to you since it will give me greater access to some of the very people you are most likely to be interested in hearing me interview: writers who are famous for their brilliance.

 

If you are as fascinated by discussions of the future as I am, and I suspect that you are, you are in for many wonderful treats.
