I've read your blog and I've heard you on TWIT podcasts. I don't mean to offend, but I personally don't like your style. To me there is just way to much self promotion. Again, YMMV.

Recently I unsubscribed to all of their Podcasts and don't seem to have been alone in doing so. If it ever goes back to Furier walking around again with a recorder I'll probably resubscribe.
