Wow, this thread is like a country song, it's got all the elements!
cj, gonzo, sorry to see you guys having a tough go of it with the show. I can understand your frustration since it's got to be hard putting forth an effort for something that should work well but just hasn't clicked.
My personal opinion is this -- back when I was a newb and Dokk's was the only game going, it was a great novelty and a way to network with people, especially on Friday nights when I was at home. Then more and more shows started surfacing and it got the point that there was no possible way to listen to them all. So I'd pop in occasionally for a show somewhere to see what was up, and if it was interesting hang around. Your show with the idiot from Solar Billing was a good one and I enjoyed being Melody the Cam Girl in the chat room
The problem I've noticed with a few of the radio hosts is that if you show up in the chat for a show that's not theirs, they tend to get testy with you for not showing up to theirs. Most of us don't have the time or inclination to spend all day sitting in radio chat, especially not with so many different shows going on. Right now I couldn't tell you who has a show and who doesn't, I don't even keep up.
I pop onto the set of AlyTV occasionally, but even though Aly's one of my best friends, I don't generally end up watching her show unless I'm on the set... once again a time issue.
I'd love to see you guys come up with a format that keeps you on the air, but I do agree that you need some sort of hook to get the guests to tune in. I hope that you guys do find it, hell I enjoy cj's accent as much as anyone!
I also find it hugely amusing that confucy has to make a half assed attempt at gloating over what's not yet a failure either.
