Hey all, In the short time since I joined this most excellent web site and starting chatting with you highly interesting folks, my podcast has received a major, major bump. Prior to me plugging it on this site, I would be lucky to have six listens on a new episode after two long weeks. Now I've had almost 600 episode hits in the last 30 days; needless to say I'm amazed, humbled, and flabbergasted that so many people are (hopefully) enjoying what I consider to be my very odd, idiosyncratic labor of love. See that hopefully in brackets? I'm kind of hoping to remove the doubt and uncertainty that those brackets imply. I would really, really like to know who you guys are. I'm not asking for deep, in-depth reviews of the show: I would simply like to know that you are not all figments of my fevered, over-enthusiastic imagination. It can feel a little strange producing a product completely in the dark, when it's fairly obvious that someone is listening in; in short, I feel like I record the show in a tiny, windowless box, and must infer its listenership in much the same way that scientists determine the existence of distant exoplanets. I'm a fairly social guy, I love having conversations about life, the universe, and everything (especially if the conversation involves prog), so please, make yourselves known. Do you listen? Do you like it? Hate it? Are you planning on killing a former president to prove your love to me? For those of you with the social networking bug, Radio Obscura has a pretty active facebook page. You can check it out here: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Radio-Obscura/111679555548369 - http://www.facebook.com/pages/Radio-Obscura/111679555548369 . Join up if you feel like listening to me ramble, or if you just like the show and want regular updates. Seriously, guys, I love this site, and I really appreciate you all listening in. Things have been pretty soul crushing since I lost my job, and the podcast has really kept my spirits afloat. There's also the (slight) possibility that any positive responses could help me make the show financially viable, which would be my ultimate pipe dream come to life. So if you have a little while, please take the time to say hi.  ------------- Certified Obscure Prog Fart. http://scottjcouturier.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow - The Loose Palace of Exile - My first novel, The Mask of Tamrel, now available on Amazon and Kindle |
