At work I opened my RSS feed reader (I use Google Reader) to skim through the morning blog report, and that’s when I discovered that Geek Fu was dumping me. Here I’d just resolved to break up with her, and she turns around and breaks up with me first! Oh the irony! Sure, she says it’s not me. It’s her. She’s burnt out. We’ve been having trouble for a while and she just didn’t want to admit it. Well, it’s probably for the best that it’s over. Now we can both move on with our lives.

Yesterday, out of the blue, I got an IM from Neil. It began with “Hey Preston. Do you still listen to Comicology?” I should say that Neil and I aren’t “tight” or anything. I’ve posted a couple times on his forum and I think I IM’d him once before when he asked for feedback about a show format. However, for all practical purposes we’re strangers. I assured him that I still listen but that I’m an episode or two behind. Neil went on to admit that that his download numbers have dropped off and he’s trying to figure out why.

I assured him that I had no intention of dropping his feed and offered to plug his show here on my blog. If you listen to podcasts, or if you don’t but you’re interested in comics, I’d like to encourage you to check out Comicology. Neil is respectful of your time, always accessible to his listeners, knowledgable about his stubject, and–most importantly–I almost always learn something new or cool from his show. Give Comicology a try.
