    I did not know your podcast could get better, but you out do yourself each week! I learn something each time I listen. Thank you!

    Have to agree with the last comment – your show does consistently put out quality interviews with loads of great information. I’ve been listening to other podcasts lately and find that some of them really have the ‘hard sell’ approach, putting in commercials of their own – beginning, middle and end of podcast. It’s so annoying. But yours is completely different. I have listened to all of your podcasts and downloaded a free pdf here and there. And if I were so inclined, I have no reticence in actually buying something from you. That’s because through all the podcasts, I’ve actually grown to trust you. You come across completely earnest and sincere and, though you’re running a business and want to make it profitable, you don’t hammer that message home to your listeners; I really appreciate that. I hope your business ‘is’ profitable because you certainly seem to be walking the walk from what I’ve seen. Congratulations on a great internet business and presence. And thank you for contributing so much to us listeners.

      Wow, Cathy. This is a very powerful message. Thank you so much for this. I do work hard at my business. I am profitable because I get to offer a product that is in service to my peers by saving them time and energy.
      Podcasters have to advertise because creating a podcast isn’t free. In fact it costs about $100 an episode for me! UI find the investment worth while as I don’t blog about classroom stuff anymore. This is a great portal to delivering valuable content to my readers.

      Thanks so, so much for your comment. Like how you think!
