Yeah. I really enjoyed this story.

Although, I really wish it was possible for some of the recorded coversatins to be played. But thats how it goes...

Thanks for this geneparmesan. I listened to this yesterday. It was great on many levels. It's an intriguing insight into the life of a psychopath (or is he?). I liked the music from 'A Clockwork Orange' in it. It always makes me feel happy that music but when I think of the film that its from I wonder if its right that the music makes me feel happy...

I've signed up especially so I can thank therunningman for their splendid work on making the all those 'Jon Ronson On' episodes available for download.

Much appreciated.

Just in case anyone's gagging for the next episode:

Jon Ronson on When Small Talk Goes Wrong

Hi Dopefiend, thanks for putting that up. I'm not sure if iplayer counts towards listening figures so I'm a little wary of putting it straight up. If things like that don't matter then I'll put them up right away. Anyway, next one is up..

Jon Ronson When small talk goes wrong

Just listened to last nights, 'Living in a movie', fantastic, probably one of my all time best.

Ok links updated, I've been getting them, just waiting for them to become unavailable on Iplayer before posting them up.

Indeed, thanks! Did you find out if iplayer contibutes to ratings?

No probs, I imagine they do take ratings from iplayer, or at least produce some report saying how shows are listened to. Judging by the download stats it certainly could make a difference.
