Take a sip straight from the Carafe, but please don’t choke. You must remain sentient and aware in order to enjoy the coming stories in this very show, The AntiSF Radio Show Carafe. As big as a star universe, of course. You’ll never swallow it all.

But I’m being cryptic. Hi, I’m Nuke, your host and editor, and I’m here to share two stories with you from Issue 210 of AntipodeanSF online, always available at antisf.com.au. Or without the au, as you choose.

A holey welcome to you and yours. It’s the AntipodeanSF radio show BW Tauri, terminology that I will leave for to you to look up in our worldwide groupmind. Perhaps later. I’ll be your host for BW Tauri whether you go or stay, but the latter is the recommended course of action because along with holey music — and that’s holey with an “e”, you’ll hear about holes, perhaps black, and also about what’s on the mysterious log from Scavenger Marks Time. We’ve all been waiting for that. So...

Holes first, perhaps.

Greetings be with you, if not the force. Welcome and thanks for joining me, Nuke, for the AntipodeanSF Radio Show Burbidge Chain, in which we’ll have no chains at all. In fact, we’ll unleash the chains of your minds with two fine stories from the pages of AntipodeanSF Issue 210, recently online at antisf.com.au.

And if you missed it, why not grab the electronic reader version of the magazine for your device. Follow the link at the site to find all of our recent back-issues.

In the meantime, stick with me while we get robocalled and disneyfied in story, and catch some fine Aussie, Austrian and German music.

On with the show, feathered and non-feathered friends:

The Sisters Of Invention - This isn’t Disneyland

G’day all folks and critters, and residents of unidentified 12-foot tinnies with at least a touch of the love of specfic. Science fiction, Fantasy, Horror, no matter your genre, we have a little of it here on the AntiSF Radio Show Bode’s. I’m Nuke, your host and sometimes editor — perhaps just another name for a gatekeeper

G’day flash speculative fiction fans. Welcome to the Black Eye edition of the AntipodeanSF Radio Show, a show that features bright Aussie music storyteller Rod Dowsett, who played for us live at 2NVR, in Studio 3, our regular live to air show beaming to the universe from the outer reaches of the Nambucca Valley.

I will talk to Rod about the science fiction in his Aussie Country music, but before we get there we will have some stories, and to keep the theme it’s three authorial Aussie blokes, with three speculative Antipodean tales.

There’s nothing like being mistaken for a star, a status that BL Lac can claim. Far from it, he or she or it is an active collective with no absorption lines, in reality a quasi stellar radio object. Sounds like somebody I know.

Hi, I’m Nuke, your host and editor, and this is indeed the AntiSF Radio Show BL Lac, and an active collective we are.

G’day. Welcome. Thanks for joining me for the latest AntipodeanSF Radio Show. I’m Nuke, your host and editor of AntipodeanSF the magazine, and the question is, what’s a Bear’s Paw doing lurking inside the constellation of Lynx?

While I don’t hope to answer that question, perhaps some of the fiction that features in this show, all of it from Aussie writers who have imaginations that reach much further than the aforementioned Bear’s Paw, will dig up even more questions that make mine pale into insignificance.

G’day lovers of flash speculative fiction galaxy wide. Hi, I’m Nuke, your host and editor, and this is the AntipodeanSF Radio Show Barnard’s. Not the star. The collection. Right there in Sagittarius, slightly irregular, and about 1.6 million years away into the past as we see it.

Not in the past, but perhaps peeking into the future, is this episode, featuring two new flash fiction stories from the pages of a recent Issue of AntipodeanSF online — www.antisf.com.au, by the way — both by Antipodeans, and a flashback at the end of the show to a fabulous story from an earlier issue of AntiSF. Be prepared for heresy.

Hail and Ave, I’m Nuke, host and editor of the AntiSF Radio Show Barbon’s. Not Bonbons, although it may be that time of year. This show is the last radio show for 2015, but don’t panic, the AntiSF Radio show will continue, weekly, through 2016. More fantastic speculative stories, more fresh music usually from down-under, and more occasional madness. That last from me, of course.

I encourage you to stay listening with me for the remainder of Barbon’s for three recent stories from the pages of AntipodeanSF, all of them from regular contributors, and including a new flash story from our most prolific and talented writer, Shaun A Saunders.

G’day folks. Are you feeling Baade? That’s not what you think. Hi, I’m Nuke, your host and editor, and this is the AntiSF Radio Show Baade, spelled bravo, alpha, alpha, delta, oscar. Ah yes, there’s that international phonetic alphabet again. We’ll be learning the first digital radio signalling system soon, Morse Code, don’t you think? Don’t hear that much on the old shortwave bands any more.

Enough of that, though, because it’s surely storytime — and this episode brings us three stories from the pages of AntiSF, one of them a flashback from the early days of AntiSF, and a Christmas special story to boot. Stick around to hear that, and learn the real reason for the coming predictions of Apocalypse, written in a liquid helium flood.
