Why, you ask? It's not because you were terrible, you weren't! It's because I couldn't hear you. I had the volume up all the way on my iBook but I just couldn't hear you and the strain was too much for me to get through the entire show. Hope you'll be back next time Brenda takes a break, but hopefully that time you'll be able to speak into the mic a little more or do whatever it is you podcasters do that makes you louder. :) I normally love Cast On but I couldn’t make it through this episode?

I am really really really late commenting on your stand-in piece Dave. I've downloaded all the Cast-ons and just got to Episode 15 last week. Anyhoo, thanks for doing a fabulous job filling in for Brenda. And thank you for playing Meg Allison... I fell in love with her song on this podcast the way I fell in love with Sarah MacLachlan & Fiona Apple 10 years ago. I promptly bought Meg's album on itunes. Thanks again! Next time Brenda needs a break, I hope we get to hear you again. :) And Brenda, lest you feel neglected, I am very much enjoying all of your podcasts. I may even get up to date here soon. :) Cheers!

I've been listing to Brenda from the beginning, and while I know Dave spent his precious time creating a podcast for us to listen to, for free no less, I admit to being caught off guard, and turning off the episode after 15 minutes. I think he was trying to be funny, not being a knitter and all that, but..I was just caught off guard, I guess. I was expecting to hear about a knitting conquest, or something about knitting, and instead, I had a different type of podcast on my hands. Literally! I get the impression people feel "negative comments" should be constrcutive, but in this case, I think the production was fine, I just wasn't prepared for the content. And, that's what "comments" are for right? Comments! So to Dave, I don't have any constructive criticism as to why I couldn't listen to this entire episode, but I appreciate you filling in for Brenda, and I plan to check out YOUR podcast very soon...

I love that you and Brenda work together so well on each other's casts, and still retain your own distinct personalities. Thanks for all your work and efforts!

Loved Ed and Ethel! I hope they show up on Cast-on again. I've also subscribed to Chub Creek. Podcasts really are gifts, as Brenda said. Gifts where the creators are giving (and expressing) of themselves. I'm surprised that a few listeners seem to think that they have some kind of entitlement to the podcasts being a certain way, or that it's acceptable to be hurtful about it. It's the same thing with personal websites; if someone sent me a nasty email that they didn't like my site, my response would be, "Then don't visit, please". Anyway, the music was great, your skits and dialog were hilarious, and it was very generous of you to sit in for Brenda, so lots of cookies from me! Dave, you did a fabulous job on this episode.
