2021 Awards Season Eligibility

It’s that time of year when everyone puts up their eligibility posts for stuff released in 2020. For our show, it’s pretty easy to identify where we’re eligible: Hugo Award for Best Fancast (finalists in 2014, 2019, and 2020) Unlike previous years, we’re probably not eligible for other categories, though being a podcast, we’re probably eligible for other podcast-friendly awards. So if you see something we’d be a good fit for, have at it! As always, we appreciate your support and love, and we do hope you’ll stick around with us through 2021 and beyond! Of course, it’s not just about us. Our show featured contributions from folks who may be eligible for other things, Hugos and otherwise! As we do every year, we’ve listed them here with links to their websites. We encourage you to visit their individual sites, as they may release eligibility posts of their own or may have novels, short fiction, and other forms of content for which they are eligible. Here’s the list:
