IT Conversations Podcast Introductions

I have been listening to podcasts for awhile and one of the podcasts I
listen to are the IT Conversations podcasts. The content is great and I
appreciate the work they do. But I do have a couple of pet peeves about
these podcasts. Actually only one of the can really be called a pet
peeve, the other is starting to piss me off.

First of all, what the hell is the job title for Doug Kaye? Executive
Producer? Executive Director? CEO? Make up your fucking mind Doug! Who
cares what your title is but please make up your mind and stick with it.
Call your self the 'Fucking Sultan of Annoying Podcaster' and be done
with it.

The other thing I wanted to vent about these podcasts are the damn
introductions. Jeeze louis! They are almost 2 minutes long on each ends.
It just goes on and on and on. If you are going to advertise shit with
your podcast, please choose one advertiser for each post. I can't stand
listening to him push his bandwidth provider and soliciting new ones for 4 minutes in every post. Thats 20% of the whole thing!! (for a 20 minute podcast)

Anyways, I know I don't have to listen to it and I might not be for
long. For now I will try not to blow my hood when it happens.
