Oh yeah? OH YEAH? Well lucky then I give enough for both of us buddy. Cheapskate.

Skulker:
I can hear it now; "The Skeptics' Guide to the Universe is brought to you by the letter Jay and the number 5x5." :laugh:
Karyn:
My only other suggestion would be to make sure the ad changes. Listening to the same ad every week for a year is a disservice to everyone involved. I had to quit listening to the COI podcast because they had the same ad every single time. I got through about 60 episodes before I went insane.
MisterMarc:
Audible sponsors a bunch of podcasts....ever thought of approaching them? There are a lot of bookish folk who listen to this podcast, and you could offer your listeners a deal of some kind.
Otherwise, I have no objection to short, simple "thanks to so-and-so for sponsoring us, they sell yadda-yadda, we like them, check them out." I'd prefer that the gang didn't go to canned commercials, because they annoy the f*** out of me, and they might drive off new listeners. Otherwise, have at it! Make money! Grow bigger!! :)
Henning:
I suppose it had to happen sometime.
You mean you guys don't already get paid for promoting the heck out of TAM, the JREF credit card, Mythbusters, and George Hrab? :)
We'll let you know if the advertising becomes too obnoxious.
