Title: Bored and curious, how often do you listen to FTL?
Post by: kawaiimiyo on March 24, 2008, 11:11:53 PM
Just bored and curious...

I confess I have a "government job", lol so I've been able to actually spend 8 full hrs listening to the show at work...  though i usually spend my work days listening to 1 or 2 shows.......

Every single day that it's on. But, I listen on podcast, and so do it when I want to, which is usually at the gym.

Why isn't there an option for "Never"?

There is but that begs a question, why?

My Ipod is loaded with FTL so it's an everyday thing.

You'll have to excuse my ignorance =p I created the poll with the assumption that since this was an "FTL" bbs most people here might be "FTL listeners"

my humblest apologies...
. i should have been more considerate and made sure i covered everyone on this poll.... i also skipped from "Once or twice" a week to 6 days a week.... i completely ignored those who listen 3-4 days a week as well......

Technically, once a month or less includes never (excuse me if you changed the poll to accomodate this possibility).

Also I listen to the Friday and Saturday show on Monday, the Monday show on Tuesday, the Tuesday show on Wednesday, the Wednesday show on Thursday, and the Thursday show on Friday.

I bet a couple of people have similar listening habits.

I listen live sometimes, but mostly listen via podcast. So, I do listen to the show most days, rather like sandm000 detailed. I'll listen to two shows in a day, if I'm playing catch-up.

When I do listen live, it's usually only the last hour or 90 mins, after I get the chilluns put to bed. Then, I'll listen to the first half the next day. I listen to Gardner's show the opposite of FTL. I catch the first hour or so live, before school pickup; then listen to the second half with FTL the next morning.

I only listen to podcasts. I'm usually a few days behind. I've only caught up to reality about twice ever. I've listened to EVERY show since I started. I think it was May of 2007.

I find this statement eminently believable.

I don't remember the last time I listened to FTL. It must've been almost 6 months ago. I just like the forums a lot.

Once or twice a week.  I listen to a lot of podcasts, but only have about 40 minutes a day to listen to them.  A download of my favorite shows ususaly lasts me about two weeks.  On that list are two or three FTLs.  When I've listened to most of the shows I fire up the podcatcher, do a massive download, and refresh my MP3 Player.  I'll usually put two-four of the most recent FTLs in there along with everything else. 

Back when I had a job where I could listen to podcasts all day I listened to most episodes.

Every fuckin' day. I inject that shit into my veins when I go to sleep at night too. Can't get enough.

I download them and listen to them the next day. . .same with RedBar and NHCLT. . . and the WEEI Whiner Line

I love Mondays at work because I have Friday and Saturday's FTL's.

Dennis! I caught up with reality again today. What a rush!!!  :)

I'm listening live right now. I feel like part of the real world. This too, however, shall pass.

I listen to the podcast when I'm doing home and business chores that don't require much mental attention; also while driving, shopping and at the gym. I never listen, unless it's while doing some activity. I probably get to hear about 70% of the shows, except during times that I listen to audio books or another podcast. Then it drops to about 30% of shows.
