    Escape Pod 968: Code Switching (Part 3 of 4)

    Code Switching (Part 3 of 4) By Malon Edwards (...Continued from Part 2) [JEAN-MICHEL] A SWEET-ASS HELICOPTER AND TEN STATER STRANGERS? JEAN-MICHEL FEAT. THE NAUGHTY NINETY-DAY FANDANGO I'm feelin' this Bell 525 Relentless like Ellen Gilchrist playin' bid whist wit her redheaded MILF temptress. She's a proper drawers dropper chopper wit no love for the paupers. Her black chrome exterior makes me want to chill in her eighty-eight-square-foot cabin interior until homo erectus becomes superior. And I'm not the only one. Sittin' wit me are ten Stater strangers who fear no danger because of the two exo-fighters flankin' us as we drink an' cuss, comforted by their protection against the Sovereign State of Chicago's skanky trust. Listen to me. Talkin' like how a real Stater must. Three of these girls might be smilin' true, but on their faces you can see fear of Electric Resurrection, too. It's a look all eleven of us have, but we play it cool—or at least try to appear to.

    Escape Pod 967: Code Switching (Part 2 of 4)

    Code Switching (Part 2 of 4) By Malon Edwards (...Continued from Part 1) [JEAN-MICHEL] ONE HUNDRED PERCENT PERFORMANCE OUTPUT JEAN-MICHEL FEAT. KINSLEY CHASE Lòske jounalis sa yo gade m— Hold up. Let me say that again. I'll wait. Y'all go grab y'alls paper an' pen. When these Stater journos look at me, they don't juss see a Black boy. Nah, they also see a bio-electric, battery-operated toy, part of a Stanford Sutton Industries ploy to bring fat cat football alums joy. (Wit money. Anpil, anpil lajan.) An' that pisses them off. So they gon' keep rushin' off an' bustin' off these queries at a machine-gun pace in my face while smirkin' at my Haitian Creole vocabulary, pretendin' they can only understand me, barely, 'cause my accent is too thick an' scary. Pakont—but on the flip side—them Chicago reporters gon' give me the benefit of the doubt (that's right) when they write they stories witout bias tonight. They embrace a sovereign state that thrives on a black market sparked by innovation an' encouraged by a Haitian who planned a nation for secession from a State of Imperfection, then made Chicago the greatest an' said to hell wit those Stater racists. Like the ones in front of me now.

    Escape Pod 966: Code Switching (Part 1 of 4)

    Code Switching By Malon Edwards [JEAN-MICHEL] INTRO: ALL I'M EVER GON' DO IS STAY BLACK AND DIE JEAN-MICHEL FEAT. KINSLEY CHASE Kinsley Chase sits on manman mwen plastic-covered couch. The InTell HumbleBrag subprogram Stanford Sutton Industries chipped me with says she's wearing a circa 2020 Theresa Frostad Eggesbø Resurrection skinload. I had no idea this shit actually worked. I don't HumbleBrag. I thought it was all about narcissism and went in one direction, so I said fuck that shit. But Kinsley Chase HumbleBraggin' 'bout how unique (meanin' how expensive) her skinload is makes sense. These days, pourin' honey like that into some poor Black people's ear can be an effective war propaganda tool. We all know both the State of Illinois and the Sovereign State of Chicago recruitin'. Too bad I don't like siwo. Or lagè. 'Sides, manman mwen and I don't need no tools. We juss need to pay our bills.

    Escape Pod 964: Show and Tell (Flashback Friday)

    Show and Tell By Greg van Eekhout Teacher is an old-fashioned bug with a blue carapace and eyes like two domes of gold beads. She is very pretty and smells like follow, but when she flutters her wings you better look smart or you'll get her stinger in your belly. So we are quiet. We are three rows of quiet children, blinking slowly and steadily, as is polite. "Today, we are having Show and Tell," Teacher says, bending her antennae towards us. "I am certain you have all brought wonderful shows."

    Escape Pod 961: Mathball

    Mathball By Larry Hodges You are a baseball fan, sitting in the centerfield seats eating an overpriced hot dog. You are wearing a baseball cap, but not a batting helmet, of course. (Why would that be an issue? Hmm…)You smile brightly, but all will not end well for you unless you pay close attention. “Play ball!” cries the umpire, crouching behind the plate. The crowd roars. The pitcher stares down at the catcher, waiting for the sign. They are the home team. Thousands cheer for them. The batter waves his bat menacingly. He is a hero of this story. Six scientists sit at their desks behind home plate, three on the third-base side, three on the first-base side. The three on the first-base side work for the pitcher and we don’t care about them—they are the enemy. The three on the third-base side work for the batter. They are from MIT. These latter three are the real stars of this story. Well… mostly.
