Hi Frank and greetings from Finland,
I’ve been a listener of ONS since Episode 701. I can’t agree with 100% of the things you talk about, but I can tell you 100% of it is entertaining. I really like your decision to start a 45-minute format. For one, my daily commute to work is almost exactly 45 minutes, and I usually spend it listening to Overnightscape and a few other podcasts. Secondly, it is true that it can get a bit overwhelming and I also totally agree with what you said about The Rampler and not needing to listen to every single one of them. I see Rampler as a great gap-filler; if there isn’t a new Overnightscape episode or any of my other regulars out, that’s when I grab the latest Rampler.
I hope you enjoy the whole Andy Kaufman business and don’t go crazy over it. And keep up the good work!
Cheers,
Teemu
