Hey Kids!

So, I managed to start the 3rd week of The All-New Portland Sucks 2.0 Daily Show™ with a bummer, there was no show today. There are a few reasons for this, but first I’d like say that I sincerely appreciate all of the emails that listeners have been sending in. I have never received so many emails about anything in my life, not through pdxsucks.com, not even through PDX.FM as a whole. The personal nature of some of the responses has been overwhelming – in a good way. The flipside of all of these emails? I realized that I needed to be listening to your suggestions this whole time and Portland Sucks never should have been cancelled or put on hiatus in the first place.

That said, I couldn’t have relaunched the show at a worse time. With some major changes happening at PDX.FM, along with doing my best to help out with Baconfest 2010, I finally concede – I’ve been trying to tackle more than I can possibly handle and I’m exhausted.

So what does this mean? It means I’m fully committed to Portland Sucks – both as a live show/podcast and once again as a blog. I’m more excited about it than I’ve ever been and I’m taking the rest of this week off from doing the show itself to get some perspective and try to make it even better. As of the 3rd episode of the new show it already had more downloads than it ever had before – I simply want to do my best to ensure that I’m giving the show (and the blog) the attention it deserves. To that end, I will be taking a break and starting back up on Monday, August 30th, 2010 with episode number 291.

Thank you for your understanding and patience, and thank you a thousand times more for the warm welcome back.
