Stephen Euin Cobb, host of the 2006 Parsec award winning podcast The Future And You has announced a partnership with Jim Baen’s Universe, the largest SF&F online magazine in the world.

In every issue of the magazine, Cobb will write a regular column, What’s new in The Future And You, as well as a nonfiction article (usually about the future). In return, he will provide the magazine ten minutes within every episode of his monthly, two-hour long show in which they will have one of their many famous authors read a sample of their work.

“While each of these are very different, and innovative, forms of media, this is a particularly natural alliance because the creative people behind both share passions and optimism for many of the same things, such as science fiction & fantasy and the real future in which we all hope to live.” notes Cobb.

The alliance launched on December 1, 2006 with the current episode (MP3) of the show and current issue of the magazine.
