How To Succeed in Evil: The Original Podcast Episodes

How to Succeed in Evil–Original Podcast Episodes are best thought of as notes and sketches for the novel length work How to Succeed in Evil:The Novel also available on podiobooks.com. This is not to take anything away from these episodes, the first 10 of which won a Parsec Award. Semi- Spoiler Alert: These episodes cover longer arc of story than the novel. Some of the stuff that happens in the podcasts might make it into a future novel. Then again, it might not. But then again, who cares. Shakespeare gave away the plot of most of his plays in the first 10 lines and it turned out okay for him.

‘Toppers!

by R. Hucek
Since Nov 19, 2019 09:15 UTC

Joyfully releasing all of the week’s “Gil-board” chartbusters every Tuesday at 3PM. It’s hop-hop, doo-wop, skiffle and sixteen-beat shuffle – the very tunes today’s Young people demand, along with some sober advice they will probably have to be force-fed. It’s the top of the pops for you and yours: ’Toppers!

How to Succeed in Evil: The Novel

by Patrick McLean
Since Mar 12, 2009 18:04 UTC

Alternately funny and dark, How to Succeed in Evil: The Novel, is the story of Edwin Windsor, Evil Efficiency Consultant. A biting satire of both modern business and the conventions of the superhero genre. This is new content, distinct from the original podcast episodes that have been up on podiobooks since 2006. While the novel is contained within the original podcast story arc, there’s a lot more depth. Many new characters, much subplottery and (to use a technical term) it’s funny as balls. Among other things we get to know Dr. Loeb a lot better. If you love one, you’ll love the other. But to put it in some kind of perspective, the original podcast episodes might be best thought of as really good notes, character sketches, etc. But maybe that’s downplaying them a bit as they were good enough to win a Parsec award? Also the Original Podcast Episodes have a lot of rich sound design in them. How to Succeed in Evil: The Novel is more of a traditional audiobook.
