Hi Jason,
watched all your shows thus far & I'm really enjoying them, well done your show is a great idea & real usefull to me. Just a quick comment about your air time of 1pm PDT ... I would like to listen live but I am in GMT (Europe) time zone (PDT -8) which works out to 5AM, now don't get me wrong I love your show but I love my sleep even more :) ..... is there any chance of pushing the air time into the late afternoon so all us europeans can watch live too or are we too small a percentage to warrent a time shift, I'd be interested to know if track watchers and have any idea of your listens geographical locations, I think alot of people produc=ing podcasts have no idea so many listen from EU.
Thanks and keep up the great work.
Kind Regards
Gareth
