Dean Koontz Podcast back with more Koontz content

SFFaudio Online Audio

Back in June someone in the marketing department at Random House thought it a smart move to get Dean Koontz to start a podcast to help promote his books. Goodness knows people might read his books if they just get a little promotion. There was a steady drip of Koontz talking about the business of writing, for three months in fact. Recently though the dead feed was revived – probably to coincide with Koontz’s novel Brother Odd.

CBC Radio One’s The Best Of Ideas Podcast has The Fir Tree by Hans Christian Anderson

SFFaudio Online Audio

Podcast - CBC Radio One - The Best Of IdeasCBC Radio One‘s program IDEAS is my favorite Canadian daily radio show, its podcast, The Best Of Ideas is five times too infrequent for me – at just once a week – but it isn’t often enough that I get a chance to talk about it. Thankfully the host, Paul Kennedy, has syndicated his reading Hans Christian Anderson’s Christmas classic The Fir Tree (a Danish fairy storie) in the latest podcast. This is a delightfully melancholic tale that is eminently suitable for listening to after the event of Xmas itself.

I won’t provide a link to a direct download on this one (though you can find it here) because I’d like to try to convince you of keeping The Best Of Ideas in your podcatcher, the show is just that good:
