That's awesome Leo - I had no idea you made so much from that. That's a lot of work though (what, 2-3 hours every weekend?). And even though they are just "everyday people" you help on the show, it's actually one of the most enjoyable shows you're involved with.

Jason is such a shady character in Silicon Valley. I'll never forget the episode years ago where he was on as a guest and was bragging about how he told his secretary to "buy two of whatever Steve Jobs holds up above his shoulder." He was so out of touch with the listeners and his phony endorsements of sponsors I'm sure drove lots of people away from listening to episodes featuring him.
Then with his bragging about Mahalo (it's only around because he raised tons of money for it simply to have it survive for 5+ years no matter what), his dirty email resignation spat with an ex-worker and his slavemaster approach to startup work environments ("I bought them a cappuccino maker! They should work from 8am to 8pm!"), I don't see what you ever saw in the guy.
He's right up there with Arrington and Scoble in terms of annoyance in the tech industry.
