2007 Parsec Awards
Posted by Rich Sigfrit at June 30th, 2008
Episode 14 - Patrick McLean Again
Posted by Rich Sigfrit at February 2nd, 2007
Just to show how much the Parsec Awards mean to Patrick McLean. Keep in mind, that no one was supposed to bring their award to the “Losers Party.”
Episode 13 - Scott Sigler
Posted by Rich Sigfrit at January 31st, 2007
Scott Sigler finally tells us how it really is. This is the no holds barred interview you have been waiting for. Not only the truth behind the Parsecs, but also the Podosphere itself.
God bless you Scott Sigler, and thank you.
Episode 12 - Patrick McLean
Posted by Rich Sigfrit at January 21st, 2007
Patrick McLean. The Man. The Legend. The Stories. The Hair. At first, I thought that his show, How to Succeed in Evil was merely a mission statement in his life, we can’t deny the snazzy of his talent. And even though he was the source of all our jokes that night, we learned that Patrick had little to do with his wins, and the real truth is brought to us by the usually calm and collected, Scott Sigler.
the aptly named, How to Succeed in Evil.
Episode 11 - Mark McCoy, Port City PD
Posted by Rich Sigfrit at January 8th, 2007
Port City PD, the only serious police drama avilable online. And one of two video podcasts represented at the Parsec Awards. You’ll find most audio podcasters don’t give the vidcasters a second thought, which is a shame. I think it’s because soon, video will unseat audio as the premiere podcast format. Audio can feel Video breathing down their back. Or maybe its because no one on the board does video? Hmmmm.
Episode 10 - Matt Wallace and Rick Stringer
Posted by Rich Sigfrit at December 18th, 2006
These two men, Rick Stringer and Matt Wallace are quick and to the point. Their show, is the same. They hit “amazing” and then back away without overloading the listener. A great show to subscribe to.
These guys appear to be as clean as can be, and genuinely surprised to have won. Last I heard, they went back to their hamster ranch in Michigan, training them for future Special Forces work.
Episode 09 - Davey Beauchamp
Posted by Rich Sigfrit at December 4th, 2006
Davey Beauchamp and indirect interview with myself, Rich Sigfrit. Davey is the kind of guy that puts his heart into everything he does. He, in association with many top of the line authors, released Writers for Relief, an Antholgy to benefit Katrina survivors.
I’m not saying that everything he said was right, that just isn’t my place.
Episode 08 - Summer Brooks
Posted by Rich Sigfrit at November 11th, 2006
Summer Brooks is an impressive woman. She puts up with Mike and Evo on a regular basis. Maybe the name of her and Joe’s podcast is a sign as to where her inner strength comes from?
Episode 07 - Christiana Ellis and Right Rev Chumley
Posted by Rich Sigfrit at November 6th, 2006
Right after the Parsec Awards, I hit up Christiana Ellis of Nina Kimberly. She did not win, and I think this was one of the greatest travesties of the night. Thankfully, her spritual adviser, the Right Rev Chumley of the Cult of UHF, was there to comfort her, and bless next years proceedings.
The Parsec Awards
Posted by Rich Sigfrit at October 30th, 2006
And now, here is a recording of the show. The actual, full length, Parsec Awards. You’ve heard everything before the Parsecs, now hear the awards show itself. I’ll be presenting more interviews after the live show.
Episode 06 - Michael A Stackpole
Posted by Rich Sigfrit at October 23rd, 2006
Michael A Stackpole is clearly the most highly respected and accomplished nominee. He is an acclaimed author, creating many of the most beloved characters in Star Wars EU. He has gone on to create The SciFi Podcast Network (tsfpn.com), and publishes The Secrets, a podcast dedicated to helping writers hone their craft.
Episode 05 - Patrick McLean
Posted by Rich Sigfrit at October 16th, 2006
When I recorded this interview, no one had any idea how many times this man was a finalist in 47 different categories.
But then again, maybe he did know how many he would go on to become the first person to hold more than one Parsec. He did try to discredit the award, showing us that it meant little to him. This of course is only speculation.
Or is it? He will appear again later on in this series.
Episode 04 - JC Hutchins and Tee Morris
Posted by Rich Sigfrit at October 13th, 2006
JC Hutchins (7th Son), although larger than life, is a very humble man. Instead of taking credit, or having a large ego and talking about himself, he’d rather drop the names of many weblebrities. Well, that was until Tee showed up.
In a surprise move, the normally sedate Tee Morris cuts into the discussion, and their hatred for each other flares, dimming the lights and frightening a gaggle of small children that were to be used in the Hobbit tossing segment of the Awards Show. But in an attempt to keep things civil, they begin to mock each other. The tension could have been cut with a knife.
Episode 03 - Steve Eley
Posted by Rich Sigfrit at October 9th, 2006
Steve Eley, a huge fan of Adam Curry, has set the podosphere ablaze with his business model by paying contributors. The stories presented on the Escape Pod show the type of creativity little seen online. This show was so popular, it spawned a sister show, dealing with Horror, unlike Escape Pod’s Science Fiction theme. You can find Pseudopod by going to pseudopod.org
Episode 02 - Stephen Euin Cobb and Tee Morris
Posted by Rich Sigfrit at October 6th, 2006
Stephen Euin Cobb - The Future and You and Tee Morris - Legacy of Morevi and The Survival Guide to Writing Fantasy are next up to bat. Everyone is still very political, which most people were surprised by with Cobb. He’s been known to go off at the handle if someone doesn’t know who he is. I have, from a trusted source, the he once killed a hobo with a ball-peen hammer. This hasn’te been proven yet, but this source has never let me down.
Stephen thanks myself and Tee Morris for his possible win (he knew. I don’t know how he knew, but by God, he knew he’d win). Maybe Tee and I shouldn’t have encouraged him so much. But his bloodlust was satiated that night, with no loss of life.
Episode 01 - Kevin Batchelder and Les Howard
Posted by Rich Sigfrit at October 3rd, 2006
To get the ball rolling, I hit up the great guys from The Signal, and the ScapeCast. Although they took the high road at first, it took little prompting before violence towards other possible winners was optioned.
Episode 00 - Intro
Posted by Rich Sigfrit at October 2nd, 2006
Here it is, the introduction to the podcast that will blow the lid off of the Parsec Awards. Please play it on your podcast if you want the truth to come to light.
