Hi Gene.

The Podcast was great and I really enjoyed being a part of the magic you create. Thank you for having me on. It was crazy to listen to myself talk… and for close to 40 minutes too.

My only other feedback would be to maybe spread out your advertising messages a little more as they seemed to overpower the Podcast at times.

Come on Gene, is it the pressure of trying to put out a provocative piece every 24 hours?
peace of work
