We are still packing these shows with a lot of information and seeing many opinions getting bounced around. It is great to see that people are still downloading the show from Talkshoe and the RSS feed over there. For a place site that isn’t our main feed we are still getting triple digit downloads from there.

Make sure you read the announcement above the player for information on Thursday Feb 12th’s show. We will be doing it on Skype and NOT on Talkshoe.com.

This was a show that was nothing further from running to the store, only to find out that you forgot your money and on the way home you had to take an alternate route because a tree fell across the road. Put it this way, I was all over the road…(this show should be titled with something to do with a (PUI) Podcasting Under the Influence! The only influence here was the topics. Enjoy the show!
