What kind of Stalin has customers and then actually asks them what they want?

Cool story, bro

I don't have a problem with the Wigwam concept. The $1.29 crack is just Billy being a smartass. Do what you gotta do. It's just not something I'd personally pony up for.
I like the banter with rival fans as long as it's not way out of control. That might help energize thngs Back in the day I pissed off many Coogs and Ducks. -
I didn't pony up for the wigwam. I ponied up for the site.

Fuck iTunes.

I'm guessing you have to be a wigwam subscriber to participate in the exclusive ask stain segment or something? Just another reason I can't support the segregation.

I'm not sure if we will have an Ask Stalin feature again because I feel like it comes across as a bit pompous of me to do so. I had plans for a different type of show yesterday but Koop had gone to the effort and trouble of PMing a bunch of posters to get questions. And so I abandoned my initial idea and went with that.

It was listener demand. And I hijacked the show.
They love their dick tator and want to get to know him.

For next show, can you tell him if Taylor Rapp will play?koopdog said:

Hello Derek and Koopdog,
I enjoyed the latest podcast. I haven't been on the boards in awhile so I almost missed the thecall for donationsmoney grab for August. I've thrown in my contribution to keep this whole operation going. I just wish it could be more.
I realize that I'm not a regular on the board, so my opinion doesn't (nor should it) hold as much weight as say, uh (*struggles to remember a handle name*), @IrishDawg22's, but here are my two cents about the site:
Definitely TL; DR...
Whoever told you about needing to decide if HHB is a hobby or a business is spot on. Pick an identity and embrace it wholeheartedly. There's nothing wrong with being a niche site, but accept everything that comes with it. Which probably means holding more of these "pledge drives" throughout the year.
Now I'm not saying you have to get all PBS/KEXP on us and mention buying a membership every 10 minutes of every podcast, but you should get more comfortable with marketing yourself. I found your site through the, um, let's say the one podcast that's no longer apart of your network anymore...podcasts are great advertising. Say what you will about those guys, but they knew how to plug your books and the site!
I don't know if this has been suggested already, but one thing I'd also recommend is giving people more donation options. Most sites/podcasts I give $ to give people the chance to give as little as $1/month (Christ, I sound Sally Struthers now). People might balk at the $129 upfront for Swaye's Wigwam, but may say, "hey, these degenerates are worth $5/month."
And yes, speaking a relative newbie, it did take awhile to get acclimated to all the inside jokes/references. Some people don't have the patience to lurk and learn the lingo, so maybe have a FAQ section? (I vaguely remember there being a thread that listed all the HHB most used phrases - maybe just link that in your "A Welcome Message to Newcomers".)
That's all I had to say before I LEAVE!/DIAFF/get AIDS. Forgive if it's stuff that's already been said. Thank you again for providing great content and an entertaining community. -

A pinned FAQ is a great idea and all new registrations should be funneled to that. Make @TierbsHsotBoobs write it as he's too poor to contribute.
