Party in math class.

We've already had some pretty extensive conversations about Nielsen ratings here.

Meh, this is just one of those episodes where Trey interrupts everybody.  I'd skip it.

Re: Episode 13 - Nielsen Ratings

The science behind ratings is all eyes per ad minute, and it's forced into being a proper and good system due to all of the business reasons mentioned. However! Does CPM or the value of the perceived audience ever factor into the worth of a show in any significant amount?

The way something like a yachting magazine can take out Rolex ads for crazy money because the minuscule audience is more likely to buy one than an average human. Might be screwing up my metaphor. Or this question is just an exercise in pretentious asshole exceptionalism, and we're all just sheep that buy what the flashy box tells us.

Does anyone else fall into a temporal vortex at 10:59 and hear the intermission from the beginning again, or do I have a build up of chronoton particles on my nacelles....

Also, does anyone know where I can get the shampoo to kill chrono crabs?

Re: Episode 13 - Nielsen Ratings

Years ago, I was sent a packet to write down what I listened to on the radio. The letter included a dollar bill as payment. I never bothered, and not long after I got another letter... asking for the dollar back.

I write stories! With words!

Re: Episode 13 - Nielsen Ratings

For months a couple of years back I was in correspondence with a bank I had closed an account with over whether or not I owed them 37 cents. They eventually wrote to me to say they did still think I owed it, but were crediting me the amount as a goodwill gesture. I laughed, and wish I had kept the letter...

This doesn't show up in the DiF podcast feed, are you using the intermission listing for this one?

That's weird. Is this the only one?
