Do you listen to Scott Adams?

[dualstow]

just curious.

[Smith1776]

I didn’t even know who he was so I had to google him.

[flyingpylon]

I would say once in a great while. I do read his tweets, that’s all I have time for.

[dualstow]

Why is no one voting?

[boglerdude]

No, he doesnt say anything that we dont already know. People dont hear what they dont want to hear. But voted Yes to support Team Red

[boglerdude]

Ackshully he did say something memorable, that he was officially Leftist, because they are in control and whats the benefit of being of being openly conservative. To wit I might end up communist, watching the far right still push Trump, when he did nothing about lockdown, is a slap in the face.

But. . .maybe we have an inflection point here https://old.reddit.com/r/facepalm/comme ... d/jozqz6g/

I did.

Know who he is. Did not know he had a Youtube but would not have listened even I knew of their existence. I have so little time budget left for any listening. Lex Fridman is my only must listen and I'm probably at least a month listening to his.

Well, my other must are listening to the five Sunday news shows. Try to listen to them twice each week. At this point, on Friday, I'm only 1.4 times through that goal.

Because you had only given us 5 hours before you asked the question? I'd been away from this computer since before you asked the question until now when I duly made my vote. Possible for you to change it so we can see the votes after we cast our own votes? Or, is it too late to do that?

Yikes. Maybe you should try only listening to them once so you have time to consider other perspectives, and see where that takes you.

No I mean those who have commented. Comments are fine, but if you’ve taken the time to comment, please vote!

Good man

There ARE definitely other perspectives within those five shows. I listen to them twice because I'm more of a reader than a listener and my mind driffs while listening. So, hopefully, on the second listen I hear what I missed the first time around.

Those ARE the only podcasts I listen without fail on a weekly or even monthly basis.

Yay, the poll is finally visible. I didn’t even notice when i set it up that it was hidden for two weeks.
No wonder I thought no one was voting

8 is one of our least participated polls?

[dualstow]

I like to end statements with a question mark?

I do also. But I do end questions with a question mark.

I was asking you if you agreed with me that with only 8 participants it was one of our least engaged polls? Asking you for confirmation or disagreement.

I guess it’s a symptom of a larger phenomenon: the forum is a ghost town.

Personally, I prefer a forum with infrequent, well reasoned and thoughtful posts to one with incessant arguments about trivia.....
Of course, frequent, well reasoned posts would be even better!

Totally agree, Hal

I'm sorry Mountaineer, I'm afraid I can't do that....

But this is my favourite scene!
