A brief history of the show... the show started to air in Sept. 2003. The French version has been around longer. SWD was the only podcast to report live from C III. We've had several authors and other personalities as interview guests. So far this year we've interviewed Daniel Wallace author of the Essential Guide series, Stephane Pepin and Yan Lauzon the producers of the Troopers series, Troy Denning author of the Dark Nest Trilogy, Star by Star, Tatooine Ghost and of the upcoming Legacy series, Mike Dodd from FX sabers, Jeff Cioletti Galaxy's End, and Karen Traviss author of Republic Commando Hard Contact, Triple Zero and of the upcoming Legacy series.

The show is made by fans for fans and we have a large following worldwide including listeners as far away as Africa, South America, Australia and beyond!

All right so there will be 2 shows this week-end and here is the way they are going to go:

Special Edition # 7 will be a live broadcast from room 19 of the Don Valley Crowne Plaza hotel and will be mainly musical while there will be some discussions in there for sure.

As for SWD #82, it will be live from here as well and we will cap the convention week-end with some of the nice folks of this city fanforce.

Now, IF you have any questions for Terry Brooks, leave them here or at the email : studio@swendirect.com so I can get them in time for the interview which might just happen on the verge of an instant.

 

Hey don't forget the most important guest you had on the show!

ME!!

On live from C3 and from SFX last year. I'm sure there was a sizable jump in the ratings when I was on.

Or was that a sizable increase in the numbers of people jumping off buildings?

 

Unfortunately due to the net bombing out on us at the hotel, we were forced to cancel both shows but a good time was had by all anyway. We'll recap on the next show covering a few of the highlights.
