My personal place is a directory I found somewhere on bing. It contains thousands of music files. I have added the link in that website url option. Hope to see more blogposts from you!

The links in the RSS feed are broken, so could you also link to the mp3 from the Show notes page (no just link to the video version)? What makes things more confusing and frustrating, the Episode number in the Feed title is NOT always the same as the title in the filename, making it hard to figure out where I am up to. Heck, Episode 17 has a filename of "...Ep1WithRyanBlockAndPeterRojas189.mp3". Consistency = good. I’m having trouble downloading the audio versions of Ep 09, 12 and 13.

TWIST #9 is another valuable contribution to the startup community. I particularly enjoyed your discussion of CEO salaries, YouTube profitability, and your general demystification of the VC world. My group and I are in an early development and business planning stage of our web startup. Your insights and opinions continue to inform and inspire us. Thanks for a great show!

Also a VERY VERY good note when you said IT people, they are secretly peeping toms at heart. I agree, a point I never thought of was when you said why would I put my web 2.0 company business plan on another web 2.0 company website. Very strong point. Also good to hear both of your views and insight on how to achieve getting either a VC or Angel Investor. GREAT SHOW A+++! Cheers Amazing show I think this is the best yet.

Listen to it on the podcast all the time. Any chance of getting more entrepreneurs on that are using tech to promote their service business (ie: brick and mortars)? I'm just learning the world of internet marketing to promote my offline passions, so a lot of what you guys talk about I'm trying to implement. Your show is awesome, and I can't get enough! Loving the show! Listen to it on the podcast all the time.

I would love to see Eric Ries and/or Steve Blank on the program, another wished for guest would be Nivi from Venturehacks. Another topic I personally would like to hear more about the legal angle of setting up a start-up, how best to structure your start up early on to make you most attractive to investors down the road.

Read it this morning so it's fresh. Great show Jason. I think the book Loren is referring too regarding being late to pick up your children is Predictably Irrational.

I understand you might be busy, but busy isn't an excuse for the show to not continue on. I do enjoy your show, and yourself as the host. However, should you not be available for the show, you should have someone replace you for the week. You will lose people when you miss weeks, not to mention, pissing off your advertisers. Sorry for the blunt post, but I feel its always appreciated. Cheers and best of luck! You gotta quit leaving weeks off from your show if you want it to take off.
