I too am amazed that a single person other than myself pays attention to what I have to say. I'm amazed that over people on Twitter want to get what I have to say. To me, it’s “The Other Ron” I listen to (lol).

I just re-read all the comments via the Griddlesode link. I guess like anything in life, if you produce something that people enjoy they're going to be sad when its gone. A certain percentage are irate now, but they'll breath a sigh of relief when they listen to reruns/archives I'm sure ;) "This is KPB5312. We down, we clear." Holy 10-4 Chopper One!

Me no good with them words... Since beginning of time (well, beginning of conciousness, that is), people have tried to gain insight into other peoples mind through communication. If I were to meet new people, I would try to talk to them to get to know them, such creating my own image of them in my mind (...thing...). The level of insight, however, is limited to what people risk to share with others. The "real me" inside me can <I>and will</I> be something completely different than the "he" others can see. I don't know, where you can draw the line here between people, that you could call "only *think* to know you", and your real friends. I guess, it is all about the amount of "personal things" you give to one fraction or to the other that defines them. Yes, I think one could say that I know "a (behind the microphone) Ron". How much "that" Ron differs from the "real" Ron that his friends know, I can absolutely not say, because I only have a limited amount of input and no way to know, what's missing. You have shared some (as I think) very personal things in your podcast, of *course* that makes people think they know you ;) BUT as far as those rights discussions.... I think, I have the <I>right</I> to express my </I>thanks</I> for the time and effort, you put into all the podcasts. I learned a lot about the world and your stories made my life better (especially the "life isn't fair" episode was a huge help for me). I have not yet listened to the last few episodes because of other reasons, but I believe, they will be as entertaining as the previous ones. But as I said, that gives *noone* the privilege to think, they have a *right* to force you into producing more episodes. Ok, that whole paragraph just didn't make sense, did it? But I just needed a complicated and very confuse way to say <I>thank you and take care</I>, whatever you do :) But, whatever the outcome of the "Ron-vs-Idiots-Conflict" is, don't let it stop you from exploring the new media further. And knowing you, you won't let that happen anyway. Yes, that pun <I>was</I>intended ;) I don’t know, hope this comes out right. Me no good with them words…

It's a read/write web. Most of us read, some of us write and now there are "rights" involved too? I don't know that MUCH has changed other than the immediacy, convenience and directness of the web. In the pre-internet age, if one was a fan of a TV show or cartoon strip, for example, one could write a letter expressing all sorts of opinions (praise-worthy or venomous) and it would be intercepted by some office bureaucracy perhaps which might return a form letter or photograph signed "Best Wishes." Such "filters" are probably not afforded most podcasters so the praise or venom goes directly to the intended target much more easily. As far as I know there is nothing new about people feeling like they "know" someone based solely on the "content" they have produced (TV show, comic strip, or podcast.) What's new (and perhaps scary to the content providers) is the lack of filtration between the content consumer and the fact that feedback is easier and more direct. As far as "rights" are concerned, there are, as you know, lots of legal things regarding content production, management and distribution, but when it comes to what people know or think they know, all bets are off.
