    HOST: R. B. Wood      SHOW NOTES: http://www.rbwood.com

    As I mentioned last time, after the 100th show, the sun will finally be setting on the Word Count Podcast after ten years.

    Ten years. My God.

    But before I tear up and get all "old man nostalgic," we still have two shows left to knock out of the park.

    Episode 99 continues our "Human" trilogy of shows and we have six brand new stories about Humans of the present.

    The #WordCountIrregulars certainly have outdone themselves this time 'round!

    The picture for the prompt and inspiration?

    GUESTS:

    Jack Gwaltney & John McCaffrey“I Feel Love...I Think”

    Maria Haskins – “From A Distance, Constellations”

    Rob Edwards "Doctor Deathray and the Girl in the Orchard"

    W. B. J. Williams – “An Old Grudge”

    M. J. King - "Pay Attention"

    Eden Baylee & Bill Kirton – “I Am What I Am”

    HOST: R. B. Wood       SHOW NOTES: http://www.rbwood.com

    Jack Gwaltney & John McCaffrey“Jeopardy”

    HOST: R. B. Wood     SHOW NOTES: http://www.rbwood.com

    Climate change is happening all around us. In recent years, we've seen record temperatures across the planet, significant melting at the poles, the accelerated extinction of many species, and an increase in the violence of major storms.

    Nothing epitomizes these accelerating changes more than the recent devastating fires in Australia.

    So with recent events and our theme of Animals in mind, this was the prompt to challenge our authors--the Word Count Irregulars:

    GUESTS:

    Bill Kirton – “Koala”

    Maria Haskins“Come and See”

    Eden Baylee – “Watchful Eyes”
