It's not unfathomable. Two different crowds.
Forums are a niche interest, and don't necessarily intersect with podcast listening. Additionally, my show is mostly about poker/Vegas/gambling topics, whereas in the most active area of the forum (this one), the topics tend not to be about that.
But the radio is also the main reason we have a stream of new users who replace the old ones. That's why the NWP/DD spinoff sites never caught on beyond siphoning existing users away. There was no factor bringing new people in. The radio show is a big feeder for that.
Sobchak didn't leave because of desertrunner.
I asked him why he left, and he said that there was too much negativity on the forum in general, and he got too caught up in it, and he felt it was healthier just to quit and do other things.
While I never agreed with his politics, he was actually a nice guy, though I will concede it got a little heated toward the end of his run here between him and certain users (not just desertrunner).
I found the forum randomly when Druff was doing a synopsis on lock poker on radio10 years ago, thats how I found the forum can't believe its been 10 years.
RIP Chinamaniac

I found PFA through the radio around 10 years ago as well. I took a job where I had to commute about 3 hours a day total 5 days a week and started looking for different poker podcast to listen to. I liked this one because it was long and detailed. Didn't really find the forum all that interesting but did make an account a few months later.
What happened to LLL did he finally get the gay flu and die of AIDS? Dude, was into lady men or whatever he had some good stories tho.
Kagney Linn Karter just died. Hot porn star who I believe some guys on Borispoker knew.
Yeah I don't know what happened to LLL.
LLL was an NWPer, and admitted in those days that he was into ladyboys and trans girls. He was definitely ahead of his time there, because this was before the big trans explosion of the 2010s.
However, he was one of those guys who was pissed at Micon for how NWP was handled, and refused to be part of Donkdown for that reason.
When I started PFA, he joined over here because he didn't really have a problem with me. Then one day he vanished. I don't know his real name, so I have no idea if he's still alive.
