I had a bank card failure in March(Lost it on the way to Pax East), and never re-upped my subscription on the new card. In April, my commute changed from 40 minutes to 15 minutes, and I stopped listening to the 'casts. In August/September, I started up again, because the afternoon drive-time sports guys are depressing and angry, and it was making me depressing and angry. So in order to change my mood, I changed my focus, and have started listening to Escape Pod again, and will start up with Podcastle again soon, I'm sure. Pseudopod is not my thing, because horror is not my thing, but there are folks out there that love that pod and not the other 2 pods, and they deserve to get their entertainment too.
I spent more in restaurants this weekend than a whole year of subscribing cost me last year, and I find that silly. So I've upped my subscription from $5/month to $10/month. Hope that helps the fight against the red and keeps all 3 pods alive.
