Across the UK, across continental North America, and around the world, on the internet, by

webcast and by podcast, my name is Howard Hughes and this is the unexplained.

Thank you very much for all of your recent communications and your support for this show,

whether you've made a donation to it or whether you sent me a message or whether you've

done both.

Greatfully received and I love to hear from you when you tell me about your life where

you are, what you do, and how you use this show.

So many people use this show when they're going to and from work, they listen to it.

And I think if I was running a mainstream radio station now, I'd be getting very, very worried

about the number of people who are just not listening to the radio anymore apart from

catching the news because it seems that more and more people, as I predicted a long time

ago, many of us did, are turning to digital sources to get their information.

You do not need the big media corporations and the great thing about working in a small

outfit like this, which is basically me, Adam, my webmaster, at Creative Hotspot in Liverpool

who does great work.

And you, there are only three of us involved in this show.

If you think about a big media organization, then you've got departments and people,

no matter how much cost-cutting they've done, there's still a lot of people to go through.

And quite often, if you get in touch with them and you make a suggestion, they'll probably

ignore your email, but if they don't, they'll talk about it endlessly.

And at the end of that, they might do something about it if they feel like they might not.

That's the difference between us and them.
