I've followed Steven Harris since 2002 when I found "Sunshine to Dollars." His first appearance on TSP was my introduction to Jack. Both of you provide truth and solutions the world sorely needs but you're also both abusive to your listeners in differing degrees of intensity and frequency... Maybe we need it sometimes to straighten ourselves out or maybe you just have a bad day sometimes.
After my debut on TSP I couldn't listen to you for about a year after you called me a liar on the forum and on a show with Steven H. regarding using AC through a DC 7-flat trailer connector and implied that I am a racist (which is funny since my brother was the first black kid in our town's school system and I was one of the last of the white kids to come out of it 10 years later). I wasn't even allowed to speak for myself since you turned the comments off on my episode and muted me on the forum.
So why do I still listen after more than 10 years? Because you still have the very best information available on any platform, you still have the most entertaining content on things that I wouldn't have otherwise heard of, and you're still there putting out more great content than anyone else I can find. Even if you do have a bad day sometimes, you are generally far more fair than anyone else when it comes to the things that really matter and I appreciate that more than I can hold on to a grudge about the things that don't.
