I just wish Adam would lay off teachers! Some of us are good, some are bad just like any other job. I found it because I'm a Dvorak follower, but most of my friends are teachers and they won't listen because of the rants about how we're all morons. If Adam is actually sincere about his message, he's bound to eventually realize that insulting the people he hopes will spread it is probably not going to be very effective.

And I like the fact that you address a lot of issues that aren't being addressed in mainstream media. You and Adam balance each other well. Maybe you can occasionally have guests too... Your show is quickly becoming one of my favorite podcasts! Thanks again! I like the combo of John and Adam!

I listened to DSC for a while but Curry's superciliosity and boundless self admiration bores quickly. Adam's lack of knowledge on a broad swath of topics never prevents him from speculating and spewing. What makes this latest episode painful is Adam's "overmodulation" or whatever he did to his voice to achieve 200% distortion. We're listening with little speakers jammed RIGHT IN OUR EARS Adam we don't need AM radio-style megacompression. At least John C.'s dulcet tones were not only wisdom-laced but easy on the ears. "Sarbanes and Oxley were actual names?" Adam, stick to playing music and bragging about your money. Ignorance demonstrations won't hold the interest of many. Thank Grid the speedup function in Windows Media player works well at 1.4x speed, got through this episode in less than 45 minutes.

I had dropped out much earlier than that obviously. Actually, I can't remember anything other than something about the FT. John, this is a complete waste of your time. Even though Curry is technically your boss, you should not do anything he tells you to. pj #8, gfors, Curry starts singing on this one? I had dropped out much earlier than that obviously.

The ego of a guy who is smart and interesting i can deal with, ie John. A guy who truly thinks he's something much greater than he is grinds on the senses, ie Adam. I stopped this weeks show when he started singing. While on my list of podcast annoyances, what is up with the intro to tech 5. that is an ear assault we don't need. I can just see some lame in the studio saying "You would think it would be annoying but its not". Newsflash, it is. Hope you get rich soon john, ill go click some ads for you.

Well, when I read #1 I somehow agreed with it, Curry doesn't go down easy. I have been listening to his DSC and some other shows from the Curry empire. After a while though, it just bacame too stupid. Most of them are just too self consumed and stuffed with irrelevant advertizing. Most of the figureheads have just too much of an ego. That's exactly what it is with Curry as well. He's got an ego as big as a mountain and some very weird ideas and manners. The few times, however, that he's been on TWIT, he was a valuable addition, so I guess the guy has something to say. Dvorak has got quite an ego himself, but doesn't come across quite as arrogant as Curry. I'll listen to the show for a while and see how it plays out. One thing's for sure: too much advertizing and I'm out. pj Curry and Dvorak… hmm…
