Our fifth piece of audio fiction for November is "Special Economics" written by Maureen F. McHugh and read by Kate Baker. Originally published in The Del Rey Book of Science Fiction and Fantasy, edited by Ellen Datlow (2008).

Special Economics by Maureen F. McHugh (audio)

Here at the Small Beer studios we find there’s nothing like  a great book and some damn fine beers to really get the conversation flowing. We’d already read Maureen F. McHugh’s zombie story “The Naturalist” (read | listen) and with the help of  Tru Beer in Easthampton, Massachusetts, we happened upon three beers that go perfectly with just about any zombie apocalypse. The result? This week’s Small Beer on Beer episode, a podcasting love letter to “The Naturalist,” all things zombie and some very unusual beers. Spoiler Alert: If you haven’t yet read Maureen’s story in her collection, After the Apocalypse, you might want to listen to episode 6, the audio version, before diving into this episode. Episode 7: In which we talk of  beer,  Reynard the Fox &amp; Maureen F. McHugh’s “The Naturalist.” On Tap This Week: Cerveza Cucapa’s Low Rider. Sierra Nevada’s Ruthless Rye. Avery Brewing Company’s Mephistopheles’ Stout. Subscribe to the Small Beer podcast using  iTunes or the service of your choice:    The post Small Beer Podcast 7: Zombie Plans, Beer &amp; Maureen F. McHugh’s “The Naturalist” first appeared on Small Beer Press.

Small Beer Podcast 7: Zombie Plans, Beer & Maureen F. McHugh’s “The Naturalist”

No, Robert Redford is not in this, neither are baseball games or family farms. This piece is not called The Natural. This story, “The Naturalist,” from Maureen’s collection, After the Apocalypse, is filled with zombies, post-apocalyptic Cleveland and meditations on good, evil, and our human impulse (or lack thereof) toward empathy. We here at Small Beer loved it so much we decided to devote an entire Small Beer on Beer episode to the sampling of beer and the discussion of this story. So listen, enjoy, and tune back in next week when we broadcast part two: our roundtable discussion of “The Naturalist,” Avery’s Mephistopheles Stout and Sierra Nevada’s Ruthless Rye. Episode 6: Maureen F. McHugh’s “The Naturalist” as read by Julie Day.
