    Just started downloading the episode and was wondering how many were seeding and from where. And was a bit suprised that a little web show from the Great Northwest was seen in such far flung places.

    Hungry
    Germany
    Iceland
    Spain
    Portugal
    Latvia
    England

    Impressed!

    Very good episode today. Lots of cool info. [...although my ears did bleed just a little hearing "Deutsche" pronounced much like "douche". :-) Try "doy-chuh" in future.]

    downloading/seeding from Cambridge Massachusetts, near Boston the birthplace of freedom, and the FSF.

    Great episode! Nice that James from mintCast will do stuff on the radio channel. :)

    If Brian cannot manage to do more than 3 shows a year bring back Alan full time.

    Chris I would like to thank you for taking extra time this episode to double check the currency symbols. I was the guy who made the uncalled for jab at you for mixing it up the pound sign with an euro sign a few episodes ago. I’m glad you took it as constructive criticism and turned it around instead. It might be a trivial thing, but it proves you care. Thanks.

    With your new radio hosting, have you talked to Mav with regards with hosting his STO radio spin off?
    Sounds like the two would be a nice match.

  • Larry

    I agree. Alan and Chris complement each other. I really enjoyed this episode.

  • Demonocron

    Alan’s a great match for TechSnap. No co-host is much fun as Bryan for LAS though. :)

    On a side note, one day, I want to hear a joint show with all the Jupiter Broadcasting peeps, the Linux Outlaws guys, and hell, just for one night bring back the LUG Radio guys as well. Put you all in one room, hit record and mix. :)
