Why Did John Gruber's Talk Show Leave 5by5? ⇒

   21 May 2012, evening time

I have tried and failed to listen to The Talk Show a few times now. It’s mostly John Gruber and Dan Benjamin rambling about random-ass stuff. (That actually describes most of what 5by5 puts out, I suppose.) Out of the blue Gruber has decided to leave the show and start one on another podcast network. What makes this particularly strange is that his new show is also called The Talk Show, and basically has the exact same branding as the old one. The only difference is the new show lacks Dan Benjamin. I can’t imagine anyway it could possibly be better than the old show. (Who is going to stop Gruber from rambling now?) Some juicy podcast drama.

Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
