Why I resigned from Think Atheist Radio
Hello all,
As you have probably noticed, there has not been any new episodes of Think Atheist Radio in a while, This is because I, the host, resigned. It was an absolute blast working on the show and interviewing such awesome scholars and intellectuals. I, however, reached a point in my life where hosting a podcast was no longer an option. Between my new job, being a single parent, and starting back school, I simply cannot commit the time during the day needed to do interviews or to edit episodes. This was the sole reason and my decision had nothing to do with any of my co-workers. I loved working with the producer, Nelson. He is a super smart dude with a lot of passion. I also really enjoyed getting know TA's head kahuna, Morgan. He is a smart dude and super duper nice. While this may be a setback, you should not despair for two reasons: (1) it was never "my" podcast. TA RADIO has always been everybody's show and can be rebooted without me. Nelson was the heart and guts of the show anyways and deserves much more of the credit than I do. And (2) I am still active on the internet even though I do not host a podcast. If you so desire, you can check out my science and critical thinking facebook page here. I update it on and off throughout the day when I have a couple of minutes of downtime.
Its been a pleasure getting to know you and I hope everyone takes care,
Greg

Thank you for everything. I have learnt plenty and enjoyed the casts. Did not get them all (yet) but they are all good. I wish you the best in your new endeavours.

And here I thought I'd encounter some sort of messy scandal.

Thanks so much for all you've done. I haven't been able to catch the podcasts live in a while because of work, but they were a great way wind down in the evening when I could.

Unseen, there are no hard feelings at all. It was a pleasure and I was bummed out when I had to resign.

Good luck to you. I'm in Unseen's camp where I've barely been able to listen to the show as much as I would have liked but they were, indeed, a blast. :)
