Podcast Episode 25: when the coral copies our fashion advice

Subscribe via RSS, Google Podcasts, Android, Stitcher, iHeartRadio or on iTunes! Hi, it's me again, Reckoning publisher Michael J. DeLuca, reporting from droughted, heatwave-beset northeastern North America. Is it brutally hot and dry where you are? Is your representative democracy hamstrung by corruption? While you're waiting around for the revolution, cool off with me for a minute or two and listen to Ashley Bao read her effervescent, beachy-apocalyptic poem, "when the coral copies our fashion advice". This is the second of five podcast episodes featuring our Utopia Award nominees from Reckoning 5. The Utopia Awards, organized by Android Press as part of CliFiCon22, will be up for public vote between August 1 - 21, and winners will be announced at the conference in October. We really hope you'll listen and be inspired to vote. I'll include links to the voting pages here once they're live. Also, in case you missed it: we're having a fundraiser! We'd love to pay everyone better and give more folks a chance to feel invested in this undertaking while making more cool stuff and amplifying more radical, revolutionary, restorative ideas. There will be rewards! Take this opportunity to sport some antifascist, pro-environmental justice Reckoning bling. Maybe win a personal critique of your writing from one of our editors. Or encourage our staff to generate some bespoke educational content on how to make the world a more livable place from right in your own backyard or local biosphere preserve.
