I have never known anyone who has owned a Zune and I don’t think I have ever seen one in the wild. I need the Zune so that I can see what this very rare product is like.
I could really use the Zune player to sync my playlist to listen to my daily 5 mile run. It takes me about 48-50 minutes to do my distance – almost the time it would take to listen to TCPJ, but actually because your show is longer, it would encourage me to perhaps run another mile or two (is that a good thing?…).
Thanks again.

May I please have a zune because I broke my Ipod, I can’t switch to ATT to get an Iphone, and I am stuck in the house every Monday on the most beautiful days listening to tcj…
I would like the 4GB Zune so i can hook to my friends zune
love your show
I would love to win the Zune because the only way I can listen to the show is to download it at home and take it to work on a USB drive. Every time I connect the unauthorized USB drive to my work PC I risk not being able to provide my family with food and shelter. Please help…. Keep up the great work!
Mickey…love the show…listen every week. I would like to win the zune because I don’t have an MP3 player! I listen to the show via cell phone. Also, it would make workouts at the gym way better! Right now I am stuck with whatever bad satellite station they have on.
Thanks for all your hard work you put into the show….you are slowly shaping another cell phone junkie here!
Love the show guys.. I’m a true cell phone junkie listening to your show weekely on my Moto Q9c downloaded directly using Beyond Pod.. A new Zune would be a perfect gift for my fiancé to introduce her to the world of podcasts… Keep up the good work!!
Mickey,
Love the show. Can’t wait to win the ZUNE so that I can listen in style. I really need a new one because my current MP3 player is a pain. It knocks my USB ports off line every time I sync it. It would be nice to sync the show and not have to reboot.
Thanks,
George
I love the show, but am only listening on my company phone. I would love to be using a mp3 player, but I can not justify spending the money because of the tight family budget. Anyway, thanks for the great show. It’s always informative and entertaining.
