The first podcast novel I started listening to was...um......7th Son *ducks to avoid the objects being thrown at him*. On Hutch's website I found a link to scottsigler.net, and caught a promo to 'Infection' in the show. So I checked it out, and now I'm HOOKED! After getting caught up on 'Infection,' I went back and listened to 'Earthcore' and 'Ancestor' back to back...it was almost too much to absorb but I did it, damn it. :P

I first heard about it from one of the presenters on The Signal podcast (http://www.serenityfirefly.com). Listened my way through Earthcore and Ancestor from podiobooks, then caught up with Infection while it was live. Loved the Rookie too :) Earthcore and Ancestor now also grace my bookshelf. mrben "Carpe Aptenodytes" http://www.jedimoose.org

I'm pretty sure that I heard about Siggie on CC Chapman's Accident Hash first. There or on Michael and Evo's Wingin' It, when that show was still being distributed. I just remember that whoever I heard it from had this manic edge to his voice. "YOU HAVE GOT TO LISTEN TO THIS!" So, I did. There was NO turning back at that point. ------- Whole Lot of Nonsense PodCast - http://www.wholelotofnonsense.org UUCSH Sunday Services - http://uucsh.libsyn.com Follow Me - http://www.twitter.com/bpende Pownce on Me - http://www.pownce.com/bpende

Don't remember if it was comment in show notes or a story as both have happened. I think it was Episode 1 of Pseudopod which was Bag Man, but it could have been mentioned on Escape Pod that I heard it first. Vampires versus Werewolves in a browser based game

I think it must have been from one of the Dragon Page podcasts.. Most probably Wingin' it, back when Sci-Fi was on the menu.

i think i googled something along the lines of "free audiobooks" out of sheer boredom stumbled on podiobooks brwsed a bit found ancestor and downloaded the first 5....i downloaded the entire rest of the book the next day. ive been hooked ever since. ~Do You Know How Many Birthdays There Are In a Year?.......Hundreads....Litearly..Hundreads,~

Vera Nazarian sold "Mount Dragon" to _Escape Pod_ and told us about it, thus introducing me to podcasting and the wonder of having SFF to listen to on long, cross-country drives. _Escape Pod_ led me to Mur Lafferty and _I Should Be Writing,_ whereon she interviewed Scott, who either was finishing up _EarthCore_ at the time or had just finished it. I thought, Let's see...no iPod, but at 45 minutes an episode this'll fit on a CD, and hokey smokes, I can AFFORD this! So I downloaded _EarthCore_ from podiobooks.com, and the rest is a tragic tale of dissipation, substance abuse, and wasted youth. --------------------- http://www.michaelspence.us

i dont remember but im glad i did

I lived in the Bajio region of Mexico - Morelia, Irapuato, Leon and our home, Cueramaro - for two very happy years. When I would travel by bus between the cities where I was working and living, I started listening to podcasts. I came across PodioBooks and from there, found Scott's work and many others. It has been a great ride, even if I'm not taking the bus as much anymore! And I am always looking forward to more.... MiguelD At home - where ever I roam http://www.memoriafoto.net

I was looking around Itunes for something new to listen to and came across Earthcore. I downloaded the podcasts and have been hooked on his writings ever since.

i found about the great scott sigler from my brother. he listens to your podcasts on his ipod. he had one on and i heard about and he told me he was making a new podiobook called the rookie. when he told me the first episode, i wne to the site and downloaded. i was hooked ever since! that was sometime in 2006. i hope that the great signer's bok will all be in audiobook and braille formats someday so i can read the published versions. i'm visually impaired.Matthew

That bag man WAS a strange story. Good though.

My friend elmofromok suggested Earthcore and 7th Son to me when I was looking for something to listen to while I made the long drive to help my parents while my dad was in the hospital. I liked the sound of Earthcore's premise better, so I fired it up when I got on the road. I was so into the story that I don't remember the 4 hours between Oklahoma City and Dallas. That was the easiest that drive has ever been. -- The ways of the Lord are often dark but never pleasant.

I decided to give podiobooks a try, and started with the most popular one that they had at the time, Earthcore. Well, I think everyone knows how the story goes from there, I got hooked and started scouring the net after that for every last Sigler story I could find.

When Drew first started talking about Earthcore, I looked it up and was hooked ever since.

I forget. That was such a long time ago. I was still going to U of A.

I learned of Scott Sigler this spring through Scepitcality. They had an interview with him just before the Ancestor release. Yes I know I am a late comer, blame it on being late to podcasting in general I would have converted to Siglerism much sooner hand I found podcasts sooner. In what I now know to be typical Junkie style I went out and emailed him over an error in the Ancestor PDF. He seriously pissed me off saying that the sun was coming up at 5:30am in November on BAFFIN F**^^*ing Island. I work the the north its dark at 7am now, and I don't thing there is any place in Canada where the sun is up at 5:30am in November. I did not get in to his podcasts for a few months after that, I think I was running low and he came up on an other podcast so I gave him a shot. I was listing to Earth Core, infection and The Rookie all at once, after I had finished with Ancester. I think it might have been one of Mur Lafferty's podcasts that lead me to Silger the second time.

Way back in the day, before Earthcore episode 1! In fact, I'm in the Acknowledgments! I am an OAOJ (Old-Ass Original Junkie), baby!

I also found out about scott's work through Podiobooks.com. Free was a nice enticement :)

I was looking around iTunes and I type in audiobooks. Luck for me Earthcore came up. And as the say the rest is history.

I found out about Scott Sigler through J.C. Hutchins' 7th Son. He was talking trash about him that I had to decide for myself.

My Coworker - Natasha from the Pandemic Show force fed me the drug. I never looked back.

Along my eternal quest for free audiobooks and such, Lifehacker.com (badass site) lead me to podiobooks.com which was great, the giant bloody blade on the cover of earthcore was shiny and caught my attention, as well as the 7th Son clone revenge story, so I decided to go back and forth between Sigler and Hutchins, Earthcore, 7S: Descent, Ancestor, 7S: deceit, and then I finished up all of Scotts stories... Yipee!

I blame itunes for my junkie status.I stumbled across earth core and now I'm hooked.

Knowing that they have links to some of my favourite sites, like podiobooks.com, makes me a bit more willing to head over there. So many good podiobooks... ------- Whole Lot of Nonsense PodCast - http://www.wholelotofnonsense.org UUCSH Sunday Services - http://uucsh.libsyn.com Follow Me - http://www.twitter.com/bpende Pownce on Me - http://www.pownce.com/bpende
