Love the show; and I think I've heard every episode. I'm a podcast junkie and subscribe to around 30 different ones on various topics.

With Pulp coming in at 4-5 hours I listen @ 1.5 - 2x speed and usually skip the commercials. I feel a little guilty about skipping the commercials since I act in commercials but...

How do you all listen?

I listen to archives on Stitcher. Usually while driving or while doing mindless work like cleaning

Podcast.. Usually listen while doing busy work.. When I listen depends on how juicy I expect the episode to be following the past weekends racing/drama

I use Podkicker from the Android App Store. It's small and simple. Has adjustable forward and backward skip timings. Many other features. It's not the easiest to search for channels, though.

I can't stand Stitcher. It's bloated with crap, runs huge in the memory, runs in the background, and has too much crap in the interface.

You listen at 2x speed? I have never thought of that before.

I listen to all the commercials. I actually listen to each set of commercials three times in a row.....

I listened to the first fantasy podcast 5 times.

Commercials 3x in a row? Wow, I'll feel less guilty now.

I use Downcast as a podcast app to listen. Yup, at 1.5-2x speed. Occasionally, I slow it down to 1.25, but almost never at normal speed. I'm a bit of an information junkie so I always have other podcasts to listen too.

I enjoy the show, I think Matthes has a great mix of charisma, humor and knowledge. I like DV and JT$ a lot and Pingree, Watson and 722 in smaller doses. I appreciate the whole crew that puts it together every week and always try to use their link to Amazon when shopping online.

It's nice to be able to get up to date news about our small and kinda obscure sport...I just wish it was shorter.

I listen on Stitcher, too. I love the way stitcher operates. The only thing I don't like about stitcher is they stopped playing the Dan Patrick Show, so I listen to that on Podcast One now, which I hate.

Edit: I bought the app out of support for the program (least I could do) but don't use it that often.

Listen on stitcher, skip commercials, and dont feel bad about it. Those are some of the worst commercials I've ever heard in my life, and they go on forever. I wish they'd do live reads instead, but I understand that it's a very long show, and that those breaks are needed for the people on the show.

Download from ITunes and move to a playlist for commute and car trip. Sometimes stream to headphones if tinkering in the garage. Don't care for the speeded up format.

I listen through the Pulp MX app on my iphone 95% of the time. I try to listen to the Pulp MX Show live when I can but if I'm listening to it or anything else archived I skip the commercials depending on my schedule. I drive a lot for work and usually listen in the car.

Occasionally the app doesn't work well. This past show on Monday didn't work well at all. The audio kept freezing. When this happens I either have to hit pause then play, wait a random amount of time or close out the app completely and then reopen to get it to work again. Usually when this happens if I'm at home I just go to pulpmxshow.com and listen on my computer but I don't have that option when I'm on the road.

I started listening in 2013 and got hooked. I really like the content Steve puts out and he's got a good sense of humor. I don't feel guilty at all when I skip the commericals because I buy stuff a lot from people who support the show. I actually looked forward to hearing the commercials Monday to see who the new sponsors were and who left. I don't know about most people but these things do impact my purchasing habits.

I use the Pulp app to listen to the recordings and I use Tunein app for live broadcast. I've listened to every episode so many times! I play episodes to fall asleep at night…. so yeah, I've slept with everyone on the show! #pookienation

Live on the app and then finish it on stitcher. Keep up the awesomeness Matthes!!

Podcasts.

I skip the commercials but don't feel guilty about it because I support the sponsors. No one cares if you listen to the commercials. I run Eks goggles, I have Tech One graphics on my bike with Pulp and Vital logos on the fender, have Fly gear and buy my stuff from BTO. Pretty sure Steve and the sponsors won't mind if I skip past hearing them for the 100th time.

I listen via the Pulp MX app on my phone, plugged into truck dashboard. I only listen when I drive. It's my talk radio.

Back and forth to work I can kill a show over a week. There is more content than you can consume these days, a very good thing.

Why don't you just buy the app and support the show? It's $1.99!!!

I listen to the app, sometimes it's tough to listen live.

I bought the app to support the show but I always listen through Apple.

Another question around when was the guest: jeremy mcgraph podcast? I've never been able to find it.

It's in the app. About a sixth of the way up from the bottom of the "classics archive".

Half live, half at work the next day. Commercials I listen to live skip at work only because they are all the same and I can basically say them in my head. I do make a point though to buy stuff from his sponsors. (most of my gear is fly, eks brand, atlas brace) .

I would shop at BTO but their shipping to Canada sucks massive balls (last time I couldn't use usps so ups fuckers charged me border fees) and $800 is a lot to spend for free shipping, my local guys will give me a good deal if I spend that kind of cash. And I can't sort on their website for my xc-w when I just wanna browse, I gotta know the part. \rant

Didn't mean to quote you Matthes

I very rarely listen live. I download it to the iPhone podcasts app. And it usually takes me the good part of the week to get all the way through Monday's show. Which sucks because a few times a month there will be something I want to call in about.
