Damn I gotta stop being one of those pesky listeners that just keep coming back.

Personally, I think there is a big difference betweent distilling and regurgitating. Distilling means you are taking out of it what is important to you and feeding it to your audience, regurgitating means you are saying whatever your source said.

Distilling is always fine in my books, because the writier is acting as an editor and providing value by summarizing, in this case a whiny marketing podcast. However if all one does is distill, then you better be really good at it.

Regurgitating in my mind is usually wrong, because you are rarely adding any value. In my mind the only time it is a good thing is when you are really opening up a new audience. So for example pointing to a technology post from an architectural blog and briefly discussing the relevance is cool versus yet another tech blog pointing to a “good” Tech Crunch article.

Seriously though, David you know I mention you guys in the podcasts I listen to every month, and Shill #6 makes me wonder if I’m just regurgitating it and re-distilling information.

I do that because I think it’s a great podcast and want to share it (which is probably the same lame excuse the bloggers who post “X said this, here’s the link” give).

Whaddya think?

The master plan is to actually reach a certain milestone of listenership and see if we can intentionally drive them away. We figure it’ll be a novel concept in social medai since most other podcasts unintentionally drive people away.

Google Juice is for posers anyway. We got the ultimate honour and were categorized under “Pornography” by Stumble Upon.

If that doesn’t bring in soon to be disgruntled listeners then I have lost my faith in the Web.

I’m getting discouraged that you guys aren’t getting the linklove and google juice. It’s episode 6!

You obviously need to ask for call-in comments, think up some wacky side bit and maybe bring in a crusty old vet …. okay, what about Clarkey?
