"Ben's" comment has been removed: For the first time ever I have removed a comment from the site.

Maybe ben@email.com with Czech ip won't mind too much.

If you are going to make posts of this nature it proves that you don't listen to the show or know enough of our history to make a comment like this.

From now on if you want to make comments of this nature just use your real name, email and no proxy.

Maybe you could move yourself on down the line and start hassling someone more interesting.

Why don't you address my comment rather than delete it. Seems like you have something to hide.

dude, seriously, there is absolutely nothing to hide. it's all in the shows. you make it sound like we are running for office.

i would take the time to write some more but until you decide that you can stop being troll i will not address your comments and remove them.

btw, this is not the same ben mentioned on the show and longtime listener.

how about this, ask the same question as yourself and i will address it with the truth.

the boring, it's all in shows, truth. sound fair to you?

I picked up the comments in the feed before they were deleted. I believe the proper answer from Kris is "it's none of your business."

Just remember that bit about arguing on the internet being like finishing first in the Special Olympics...

RE: KAthy Griffin

Kris... you're so so out of touch. You missed a major geek moment. Do you know who she's dating (and supposedly engaged to)?

Woz. As in Steve Wozniak.

You could have picked up serious geek points there, pal.

I'd agree on the Kathy tip. Dude, you should have a few cd's of the vacation series on your person at all times. If nothing more than a fancy business card, someone may actually give it a listen. Or the bits that you sent to XM. Work the PR machine.

Her interview on Larry King was fantastic.

that is a coincidence, last night we watched the devil and daniel johnston and saw how, even though clinically insane, he was great at marketing his stuff music by having it on himself at all times.

i think this is a brilliant idea for show promotion.

do you know how many funny looks I got from the people in their cars waiting at the red light around me as I LAUGHED SO HARD I HAD TEARS STREAMING DOWN MY FACE????

I mean, really. Really? A ziplock bag full of cologne??? oh my god...I'm still crying.

what do they serve at morrissey dinner theater?
melancholy sausage and sad potatoes

That was just about the funniest episode I've ever listened to! You guys are great! I "celebrated" Tell-a-Friend-Friday a little bit late by pimping you in my podcast, Squeecast: Fangirls Unite! It's a new podcast, so I doubt I'll get you too many listeners, but yours is usually one of the first I recommend. I linked my podcast, if you're interested... we're mostly pop culture oriented, tho', so I dunno if it would be appealing. ANYWAY (longest comment ever, right?), just wanted to say thank you for giving us such a great podcast!

mmmmm...sad potatoes...

Kris and Betsy, I've been going through and catching up on reading the comments and various posts on the site. I've had to read several aloud to my wife because I am so blown away by how rude and presumptuous people can be.
We have had the hilarious joy of listening to the show for more than two years. Quoting the two of you has become a common part of our life. I worked in audio production for a decade before becoming a teacher, and I appreciate how much time, effort, and expense is involved in creating the quality program that Croncast is.
Having people rip you for any reason, let alone a website quality issue or a "missed" show is so completely appalling. I would hope that the vast majority of your listeners appreciate what you do and realize how truly amazing it is.
Thank you for including us in your lives and adventures. Great blessings to both of you and your family.

I was so glad you are back. I was worried when there wasn't a show for 2 days. I thought Betsy became seriously ill from her jamocha shake. I listen to you while putting my 2 year old to bed and was laughing so hard during this episode she took longer to fall asleep.
Thanks for the shows, Rhonda

I love it when you guys crack each other up, it makes me smile. Especially when one of you snorts, that was too funny.

I think Betsy was talking about my blog post about what you guys looked like in my head way back when I started listening to your show - I really hope it didn't sound that way! I don't think you guys were hideous - I just have a creative imagination. I do like the idea of Kris wearing a beret, though. From now on, I think I'm going to listen, imagining Kris with a beret. Anyhow, I have seriously screwed up pictures in my head of that people I listen to would look like. I'm not even going to tell you what I think Peter Segel looks like, and Karl Cassel, he looks like a basset hound in my head. I hope you didn't take offense, I love you guys, you're beautiful!

So glad you guys are back -- missed you last week! If you ever feel unappreciated, just remember all the people out there who love the show! I'm always bummed when there's a missing show, but I realize you have lives to live. You guys are great!

Remember a little while back about Betsy's story about making eye contact with nerds? (It was at Gnomedex or something.) Well it's totally true.

Last week the wife and I were on a bike trip with her co-workers. We were standing around drinking coffee and one of her friends from work was looking me right in the eye. As she looked I thought about how this was a perfect opportunity to prove Betsy wrong. (or at least prove I'm not not that geeky) I tried to return the eye contact, but try as I might, nerd instinct won out and I could not keep my eyes off the ground.

The point is, this show is awesome. I now have a deeper understanding about who I am. Thanks!

Following up on Lisa G's comment, do you follow baseball at all? There's a player on the Red Sox that looks an awful lot like Kris. Hmmmm Kris, are you living a double life?

Tim's comment (#5) is offensive and displays his ignorance of the hard work, commitment, and huge challenges that are overcome by an Special Olympics athlete.

Try walking a mile in my shoes, Tim, and you'd never make a comment like that again.
