Looking now at the article, I left out one critical aspect to the success of Carolla's podcast, which is guests respecting the audience he does draw. Looking at Carolla's guests, you can see it's gone stale and repetitive and his audience has dropped off. But when the Carolla podcast first came out Simmons was on there conceding that Adam had more listeners. I’d probably say that’s true, especially now.

Most people, according to him, go through the ESPN website and not iTunes, to get his podcast. Actually Simmons claims that his total listeners are highers than carolla’s.

"let it be JAAARRRRREEEEDDD"... Second, because of the frankly ear annoying yammer, I was curious about the store/s itself. I had a moderately successful career interest in radio and audio advertising and my curiosity was satisfied with a store visit. While seeing a friend in Knoxville, TN this weekend, I went to JAAAARRRRREEEEEDDDDD. What a pleasant suprise, really! the store was attractive and I was met by and very nicely greeted by an exceptionally attractive -to me- woman in the store. She was so cordial and pleasant in a friendly and quietly sophisticated way that I was frankly shocked that a store with such screamingly annoying sounding radio commercials would have an in-store ambiance that was so positive!

You are the target audience for these ads. You don't see anything wrong with legendarily SHITTY advertisements, because "hurf durf they need to advertise!" And you'll tolerate the ad because you want the chick in it. So you aren't going to be put off by what is essentially a cheese-grater to the brain of most sensible people. But you miss WHY jewelry "makes women feel nice." Or some women. And you miss that the women portrayed in these ads, the one you want so hard, are shallow, soulless vultures. They're the sort of people who spout other people's opinions, and when encountered by sane people, the other party will nod politely and walk away from the exchange while their brain screams at them as it peels through the layers of WRONGNESS with everything that just came out of the woman's mouth. Most of the time you can't even let them have it verbally, even if you want to, because you can't even know where to start. You're receptive to everything they want to get across, and blind to everything that comes across for the rest of us. You're like that one idiot in a million who replies to spam emails in order to buy "H3RB4| V!4GRA." It only takes one of the RIGHT KIND OF IDIOT, out of thousands at whom they spit this shit. Just one to make it worth it. I hope you're proud of yourself. Joe, it’s you. You are the target audience for these ads.
