Why This Must Be Read Heard: I'm reccing more recent podfics this month, and this is a lovely one in which John thinks he's asexual (or broken in some way) but Rodney approaches the situation as an experiment and they eventually figure it out. While the scientific method does get good results, in the end, of course, some feelings need to be dealt with. It's an excellent story, read by the author, with a nicely authoritative Rodney and a John who's had past bad experiences and has now let Rodney inside his defences, but can still muster quite a bit of snark. A great listen or read, very much recommended!
