"You all have experienced 'the attitude.' You've heard it and you've read it, whether or not it has been directed at you. Any criticism of the show results in a barrage of abuse, including yelling, screaming, and swearing accompanied with a proclamation of their right to do so because it is their show."
I've gotta say this is unfair on a couple of levels.
1.) Okay so if we all know that then we're all in, so to speak. It's not like we have loftier expectations right? So why are you shocked or offended at this point? It's another flavor of the overall Paracast experience
2.) How much criticism would you take before eventually telling the critic to kiss off? A little of it here and there is fine. But there's this sense of familiarity that some listeners get that they know who you are because they hear your show and I think there's no hard line drawn in the sand there, ya know? It's just kind of an instinctive boundary and you know when it's been crossed only after the fact.
There are people who don't embrace "fame" this way even if their career or hobby path goes that way. So Dave's one of those. He's Kurt Cobain, not Dave Grohl. If ya like the music, just deal with it.
