Just finished listening to this episode, and I have to say that I very much enjoyed it. It felt like just joining three good friends in their conversation about pretty much everything. Almost getting me to the point where I just respond out loud to for instance your point on the UPS website. In any case, I subscribed to the feed, and intend to listen back to your back catalog. And for it being unedited, made it even more like just a casual, impromptu sitdown. So I don’t mind that one bit. Keep up the great work!

Marc,
Thanks for the kind words. I’m going to try and post a glut of episodes leading up to my 30th birthday, May 2011. And if you want to be a guest, we can do a Skype chat. That might be a fun episode.

The episode was fine unedited; I didn’t notice at all.

Hey man, just got round to listening to this properly! Such a good thing to do and to have for posterity, no need to edit.To Marc’s point, it feels more intimate this way. Tea anytime.

Hi Scott, I thought I’d leave a comment after listening to your latest podcast. I love Craig and Lisa – they were very fascinating.
I love your podcast please keep updating and recording random moments (they’re the best episodes!). I agree it sounds fine unedited – if it means you’ll podcast more often then I’m happy! I like to pretend I’m also a twentysomething living in New York for an hour or so (I’m living in Sydney and dream of one day visiting New York). I stumbled across your blog a few months ago by googling “quarterlife crisis” (which I started going through 3 years ago at 24yrs old). I was very happy to download all the previous podcasts still listed in itunes and enjoyed listening to them. I’ve just recently figured out I’m a ‘shy introvert’ so while I don’t often talk much in a group situation, I love love love listening in to other people talk as it’s fascinating to find out what others are thinking. Your podcast helps me wind down at the end of a long working week.
