When to keep your mouth shut

[Dan Hughes]

Last week I posted a new podcast (radio show you can listen to on your computer) about the advantages of talking to everybody you know (and more importantly, people you don't know) about your hobby.

Now, here's the other side of the coin. When NOT to talk about your hobby. You can save yourself untold grief by just keeping your mouth shut sometimes.

The program is short - about three minutes - and it's show #010 at:

You'll have to scroll down quite a ways to get to it. It's dated 2008, but it's really brand new. I replaced the old #010 with this new one, and the original show number and date stays on the web page.

It's not who you talk to, it's all about what details you share. People who I know that are really into the hobby I'll talk about any of my finds, but those that aren't, it's all about bullets and maybe an old worthless penny.

Thanks Dan.

Dan,

I've searched around your site looking for the podcast you spoke about with no luck.

Instead of us having to waste time searching an entire website why don't you just give us a direct link to what you want us to hear. It would be much quicker and easier that way.

Depends. (Not adult diapers, either.)

Sometimes a little notoriety can swing leads your way. Other times, its just lead (as in led). I'd rather have the leads.
