Hi e8hffff,

I'm the Janitor in question let me reply. First thanks for posting this to the mail list. As I said in the show the Janitors do not decide HPR policy, this mail list does[1].

> It's painful to only have one show a week day, and that's double pain if only a short podcast.

You point is a valid one, and is often brought up for discussion. The most recent was April of this year, which was triggered by an article by hedorah[2]. Have a read of that discussion and pop back here with your thoughts.

To address that point, we have long had the option to ignore the dictates of the evil Janitors ;-) Just go to "Get Shows > Advanced Settings[2]" and you can get the shows as soon as they are posted. Remember that if a show is posted incorrectly and we need to repost it, you will probably miss the new release. But no harm to have another pair of ears checking the future freed for us.

Don't forget we have 3996 older shows ready right now. That's 76 days 12 hours 3 minutes 31 seconds right there. Assuming you listen for 12 hours a day you are covered until Saturday, 29 January 2022. By which time there will be another 110 shows for you.

You can also help out by adding tags[4] and updating the shownotes for those shows.

It's great to see you are intending to contribute some shows. If you run into any issues please get in touch. Any tips on the process from a new contributor is great as we are always trying to make it easier to post shows.

1. I got the impression from a recent HPR podcast with the "Janitor" that they
fill a one show a day schedule and limit the rest.  Maybe I need to listen
again.

2. Agree.  I have been contemplating how to make content.

3. It was more about casting a whole community as bad in a disrespectful,
hypocritical political way, and not by Chris Fisher.  Similar to dishing on
veteran soldiers.  Noting I don't support wars unless defensive.  Also note,
COVID19 has 99.97 survival rate and compares to influenza of 99.98 so no you're
not killing people by being normal and asserting god given access to nature
and life pursuits.

What a ridiculous email.

1. HPR struggles to fill every weekday, frequently having to ask for
more shows so as not to stop altogether.

2. You cannot demand the rest of the world provide you with distraction.
If you need distraction, record some shows.

3. Covid lock-down freedom fighter? You obviously care more about your
freedom to infect than others freedom not to be infected/potentially killed.
