Happy 11th annual #ITPE!!!! The first #ITPE was in 2011— can you believe it’s been 10 whole years??!

2021 has been A Year and we’re grateful for everyone who participated despite everything that’s been going on. Here’s some stats and highlights from this year’s #ITPE!

We had 84 participants this year, and you made 296 podfics (including some ~sekrit~ gifts not available on the masterlist), in about 127 fandoms, for a total run time of 176 hours, 52 minutes and 7 seconds—that’s over SEVEN DAYS of audio!

There were 5 simulpods. This year’s lattice_frames Award (named after her when she she did this three years running) goes to c_ea_ze and FumblesMcStupd, for podficcing each other the same main gift, with a hat tip to knight_tracer and pxssnelke for both podficcing two of the other five simulpods. In a delightful turn of events, sisi_rambles made a gift for her recipient, RionaaP, who also podficced that same fic for THEIR recipient!

How did our resident podfic robots do this year? Opal–”Oh, I’m probably going to be too busy to podfic much this year”–song (opalsong) still managed a whopping 19 gifts for her recipient this year, INCLUDING a super-sekrit 5 and a half hour long multivoice. reenajenkins also had a relatively sedate year (for her) but managed to treat almost a dozen people on top of her very generous gifts for her recipient. While she cannot compete in terms of cumulative audio length, this year, blackestglass inadvertently podficced her way to most number of gifts in the collection after trying to rig #ITPE to get more Murderbot podfics and, when that didn’t pan out, deciding that she was just going to have to make it happen herself by treating everyone who requested that fandom. Special shout-outs to esbielle who created a nearly 10 hour podfic for their recipient and to JoCarthage who created an 18 HOUR PODFIC for their recipient!! Holy wow!

And finally, some thank you’s to:

-regretsonmain for handling the data and creating data-related memes (this year the team united a data scientist regretsonmain and a librarian vworpvworp and we hope blackestglass and knight_tracer enjoyed our Opinions on categorization)
-flowerparrish for pinch hitting
-Gilraina for editing assistance
-And as always, exmanhater for ITPE’s permanent hosting

Now let’s get on to what you’re really here for…..the masterlist!! Here’s the masterlist spreadsheet for this year’s exchange!


Happy listening!!!
