  1. Congratulations on your 100th podcast.  I just finished listening.  Always a pleasure.  Always a learning experience.  I purposefully waited to comment ‘after’ the podcast because I knew you’d be deluged with praise for your fine efforts.

    You have done a service to the profession and created a useful body of knowledge.  It is a ground breaking library, of sorts, that has no equal in PR, marketing and communication.  No smoke blowing there, either.  That is heartfelt.

    All the best for your next 100!

  2. You know that you are addicted to FIR when… you’re grateful that you don’t have to sit in your car to have an FIR moment because you’re not using your car radio, you’re listening on an Ipod. 

    I tried to come up with a short way of telling you about a phenomenon I’ve experienced lately. I’m new to using an ipod and the whole thing with the earpiece headphones. So usually one show lasts longer than a single drive time session (which BTW is fine. Don’t take that as critique on the length of the show). While listening to the show, I’ll pull up to the office. Just as I’m about to reach for the keys and get out of the car I’ll pause to keep listing to the show. Instantly my brain will start to think about staying in the car to listen until the end of the topic. On public radio fund drives they refer to these as “driveway moments”. Old habits are hard to break. But then, a ha! I realize that now that I’m fully integrated into a 2.0 world, I’m not bonded to my car for FIR. I can keep listening all the way into the office.

    Another thought is that my wife and I have been saying to each other for some time that we wish someone would invent Tivo for the car radio. That’s what my new Ipod has become for me but it stretches past the confines of the bucket seats.
