I actually found Earthcore on Podiobooks.com. I had just gotten my ipod (in March) and I found podiobooks.com when I was researching getting my pod. I was super excited and I subscribed to a whole slew of podiobooks. I then had to make a trip to Louisiana (I live in ohio) and so on my long trip, I picked this book from the list of podcasts on my ipod.... and the rest is history. I've listened to all his books and as much of his short fiction as I could find. Love IT!
Share your own Sigler addiction story.
I came to the light while at work. We used Mac and I was searching for something to listen to and stumbled across podcasts for the first time. I can't remember what random path I took through the iTunes music store, but Earthcore was the first one podcast i latched on to. It had been running for I think 3 episodes. I subscribed then and have been hooked ever since.
Eagles may soar, but weasels never get sucked into jet engines!
Was listening to Shadow Falls - first season and they mentioned - Pseudopod. The first short story was Bagman and I was hooked.

Yeah once you headover to lifehacker you just can't really stop. They post like a million times a day different articles on better ways to do stuff, as well as lots of freeware/open source stuff and much much firefoxiness. Breeeeeeeeeeee!
Looking on one of the presenters (Jason Bradbury) website when I came across a link to Sigler.net site. A quick read had me hooked and a few click later iTunes was downloading Earthcore :) been a fan ever since
aka nilling everywhere else!
I found "www.scottsigler.com" scrawled on a men's room stall at a rest stop on I-90 outside of Erie. Imagine my disappointment when I finally typed it into a browser.
I was looking for audio novels on iTunes and found podiobooks. I worked through the fantasy, then made my way to the sci-fi. I can't remember how I got to Scott's stuff, but when I did, I was immediately hooked.

Maybe it's been too long. Maybe the audio files have addled my brain. Either way, I can't remember what tipped me off to these weekly (sometimes weekly) stories.
I do remember that when I started I was able to go back and listen to all of Earthcore with episodes back to back. Ah... those were glorious days. Not at all like the waiting we have to endure for the next sweet hit.
When I heard Hutch talking about what a stuck up little bitch Sigler was, I had to find out just how bad this dude was....
.... it was a trap.
One day I was bored and didn't have any books to read so I went looking for some Sci-Fi thriller novels, one search turned up a somewhat vague podcast called "Earthcore", the rest is history...
"A common mistake people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools."
After I heard that episode I did a search on podiobooks.com and downloaded everything Sigler and thus my decent into becoming a pod addicted junkie began (shakes fist in air) damn you Sigler damn you lol
7th Son was also my gateway drug in the fall of '06. ::drops to the floor at the sound of the gunshots:: Please don't kill me Sigler's better then Hutch. I discovered Sigler through an interview he did with Big O on the now dead Lostsucks podcast about a month later to promote the Rookie and the rest is history.
Yessir, I found out through the master himself. That's right... I'm not a junkie after all! I'm a beta clone! And before this is all over all of you will bow before the REAL master of the podcasting world... Hutchins.

When I bought David Wellington's 13 Bullets, I got a bonus eMail containing a PDF of The Great Snipe Hunt. I was hooked within seconds.

Work hooked me up with a free $50 gift card to Amazon. I have always loved reading horror novels and just happened to stumble on Ancestor. After reading the sypnosis and reviews I decided to give it and Earthcore a try. That was my first taste of Sigler and I must say I think I'm hooked now. I do believe I am in the fast lane to becoming a junkie.
I'm tired of chasing my dreams. I'm just going to ask them where they are going and hook-up with them later.

I got turn on by Lynn and Cat of "The Lipstick Aliens Podcast" (currently on hiatas). They were always chattering about 7th Son, So I d/led a JC cast. And got hooked on that. Then I heard of The Rookie...and my life has never been the same.
My boss got me hooked onto 7th Son, and I caught a few promos for some of Scott's work. I was getting hooked onto podcast novel's and needed some more to fill in my 1 hour commute 1 way into work. So from there on I was addicted to these type of medium, a junkie I had become.
I happened to stumble onto Podiobooks while discovering podcasts and saw Ancestor. I thought it looked like Jerrasic Park (a book i LOVED), so i gave it a try. And you know what they say about drugs, once you've had one, you want to try more and different kinds. Thus, my becoming a Junkie.
