Why do we do the things we do? Astrology. Training a person like training an animal. Caring so much about whether people to listen to you 100% that you don't notice what an honor it is that they listen to you at all.
Here's the podcast page. Here's the place to live-stream. And you know damned well you should be subscribing:

How nice it is to hear your real voice. I had a sense of your personality before from your writing, but, unlike hearing my own voice, I heard the same person I had come to know on your blog, only more so.
Secondly, you're too kind to Mr. Whatsisname. We have all done some things we didn't mean seriously, I suppose, but having posed as an astrology expert strikes me as having once been a worshipper of Baal or Astoreth, or being presently a Wiccan.
Of course, who am I to turn up my nose, being a religious believer myself? My religion, while not provable in scientific terms, is informed by reason. I do not believe, for example, that the planets have any way of influencing our personalities and relationships, because I can't imagine how that could happen. I can imagine how beings exist in this universe, or in some superuniverse of which this is a part, who have personalities like ours, albeit far advanced and refined, and knowledge far beyond ours, such as what was before the Big Bang, how it came about, etc.
On the other hand, I have nothing at this point to support the view that stone statues can think and grant wishes. And I have to suspect the integrity and seriousness of someone who acted as if he believed such things and made a study of them.
Your theory on holding a classes attention is brilliant. It especially explains the problem with experiential learning styles [as opposed to visual or aural].
It could also be used to explain how psychaitrists endure their patients' talking without completely zoning out.
My husband is an inveterate doodler and now I have a new perspective so as not to "ssshhh" his tool-for-engagement.
Pardon: "class's attention"; "psychiatrists"
Mind must've wandered off...
I have to agree with AST - although I haven't had a chance to listen to this week yet. Listening to the podcast seems very much to me like hearing the blog (and therefore the blogger) come to life.
Loved the podcast, but why have you switched to such a low fidelity? 16kbits/second and 11 khz sample rate? Too low. Most podcasters use 64kbit/second, which is always good enough for talk. 16kbits/second distorts your lovely voice.
Charlie: I upgraded the program and forgot something about the settings. What was it??
Oh, I see what I did. Thanks for pointing that out. It will be fixed for #57.
