Hey there Marshall, I've checked out podcasts #14 #15 plus the 'Bonus' episode. I really enjoy most of the stuff you talk about and so far all the subjects you cover are very interesting. Your inspirations, aspirations, the processes, etc... I would like to make a couple constructive criticism comments. I would like to suggest that maybe watch repeating some of the stuff you talk about. I'm sure it's difficult to do because you seem to be doing these while driving and dont have any notes in front of you while talking. Don't get me wrong, very interesting content. Also, maybe you could script your list of the items you have available for sale (Once at the beginning and once again at the end of each podcast). Just suggestions and only my opinion but only meant to strengthen the "Escape Artist" podcast. I did notice that most of them are about 40 min long which I think is a great length. Anything more I think might sound a little winded. Personally, I do listen to quite a few different podcasts each week and plus throw in some tunes in between so 40min works for me. Keep up the great work man. I find that everything you are doing very inspirational.

Hey Matt Thanks for the comment! Yes I agree I do tend to repeat myself sometimes. I try to keep a lid on it as much as possible but it still happens from time to time. It's good to hear the crit though so I can continue to watch out for it Thanks! Yea the time fluctuates from like 30 to 60 minutes about... I usually like around 60 min or so for the podcasts I listen to but since Im just one guy and I don't want to bore people I try to keep it short. Not always successful though lol. Thanks again for the input man! I hope you continue to enjoy the podcast :)

Jesse Thanks for checking in! Yes I'm really leaning toward a floppy right now... but If I do a floppy I think I want it to have at least some kind of arc tying it together for an eventual TPB or GN so I'm thinking I may take some time to develop GLYF a little more... not sure this on the fly one shot story writing approach has treated me pretty well too so maybe I shouldn't mess with the formula this early in the game hmmmm... Glad you'd like to see a floppy man!

Nice one, dude! I always enjoy listening to your podcast, and this one was especially informative. I agree with you that Ryan Wheaton is definitely on to something with the "laid-back" selling approach. I have the buttons to prove it, too.
