I liked season one more than season two because I felt that the Dating Ring founders were a little more guarded about their vulnerabilities and shortcomings, whereas Alex laid it all on the line. (YMMV on this opinion.)
- fredrivett 10y agoTotally agree CC. That is probably my all time favourite podcast, just ahead of Serial, and Justin Jacksons MegaMaker https://serialpodcast.org/season-one https://serialpodcast.org/season-one http://megamaker.co/ http://megamaker.co/
- cushychicken 10y agoNever heard of MegaMaker. I'll check that out. Thanks for the tip.
- stevenwiles 10y agoHoly crap! you and cc are like my internet heroes! its so awesome seeing both of you in the same place! I love you guys!!
- cushychicken 10y ago...I'm an internet hero?
- haraball 10y agoSeason one and two were great! Too bad the third season got swamped in commercials and irrelevant stories. Wish I could pay to avoid the insane amounts of commercials that makes many promising podcasts unlistenable!
- magic_beans 10y agoSeason three was my favorite of all the seasons! I thought it was much more interesting to learn about non-tech small businesses.
- cushychicken 10y agoHm, haven't gotten to the third season yet. Been too swamped with extracurriculars to sit and listen to a podcast. :)
- shostack 10y agoHaven't you heard? Podcasts are the next big thing in digital advertising. Expect all your favorites to get cluttered up in the near future to the level their audience will tolerate.
