It’s always cool when you mention me on your podcast since you are the one who inspired me. So John I’m curious. Who are these big-headed gay podcasters? And who are they bashing now? Gay guys are particularly vicious at times. I don’t worry to much about it. Most times I just get a good laugh out of the drama. Besides I’ve more important things to worry about than what some bitch might have to say about me. You’ve always been fair with your critiques of personal journal podcasters. I’m with you on doing this just out of a love to share without any need in being monetarily compensated. That’s what I love most about personal journals – the sharing of one’s personal life stories. The good and the bad. Those life stories (in and of themselves) can often be entertaining without the need to create a fictitious world. That’s why I so love your podcast and continue to listen to it. Hopefully one day I’ll have the good fortune to meet my mentor.
-Sincerely Nick Thomas 🙂
Oh John…I want to join your chat about all the issues of podcasting. I have lots to say. And I agree about those of us who don’t really care to monitize our podcasts. Now, I may need some background on the bitchiness between the gay podcasts. I am not all that aware of it. And I do agree with you. I’m podcasting for the fun of it. From time to time it’s fun to see where you are on iTunes, etc., but for the most part, I don’t really care where I rank on the various sites. Podcasting for me is fun and I enjoy doing it. You know, I only have about 200 listeners and that’s fine with me. I have a very loyal audiance and I interact with them daily. I love that but if that part of it ended, I’d continue to podcast simply because I enjoy it and like to record what’s going on in my life at any given time.
Anyway, great conversation. I wish I had been there to join in.
John – I registerd for Podcasmp MW 🙂 Add 1 more whore.
I think I have an idea about the bitchiness of some podcasters. There are 3 fairly big Chicago gay podcasters who dont get along that well, and there is some competition, heightened especially when the local gay rags have their awards for Best Gay Podcast.
I’ll have to agree with Archerr on doing podcasting for the fun and therapy of it. I also appreciate the friends that I have made because of podcasting, you included.
Archerr, you could do one like this on one of your “gang bang” shows.
Brad, I’m not even referring to anyone specific. But I am picking that up from everywhere.
