I've listened to the podcasts more a while back (120s maybe) but for the life of me I don't know why I ever stopped. It's like you guys take my thoughts and speak them to the world haha. Anyways glad to be back, not leaving this time. Anxious for #200 now.

long time (forum) poster, first time viewer. excellent stuff; great discussion. subscribing now. +1 for the upcoming "number 1" giveaway.
^ All this = cool as hell.
I'm far less nervous knowing it's folks I see every day on the blog listening live :)
Very much this!
Glad we could make you guys tear up a little ;)
In all seriousness though, I fully respect a site where the writers are as personable with their userbase as you guys are, and I think that's one of the best qualities of this site over other sites. Oh and Lloyd of course.
