Hi Michael Goudeau. PennRadio wouldn't be the same without you.

My favorite thing about the show is Penn Jillette just telling his stories.

My least favorite thing about the show is when you guys take phone calls. If I wanted to hear phone calls from strangers I could listen to pretty much any other radio show -- which is why I don't listen to the radio at all. (I listen to your show on podcast.)

I, for one, am happy New York is doing such a terrible job of keeping callers on the line for you. I'm sure it will be less frustrating when you're handling calls directly in Las Vegas, but some of us might miss the days of bad technicians and abrupt hang-ups.

The April 11th episode was, as you might guess, my favorite so far: all stories; no phone calls. I hope you do more of that.

Mine is just one preference, I realize, and you can't change the whole show just for me, but I'm hoping I'm not the only one giving you this kind of feedback. I hope you'll forget standard formats and let Penn Jillette's show be its own thing. Happy Jack should put down his sign.

Thanks for your time.

laissez faire,
