So, was the media hype nothing more than a snow Job(s)?

With each passing day, it seems more and more revelations of the dark side of Steve Jobs are emerging. Exactly, why did the media anoint Jobs as a cross between Mother Theresa and Thomas Edison in the immediate aftermath of his death? And, should the now well-documented abusive behavior of a true genius be overlooked because, well, he was a genius who changed the world?

RepMan: I must admit this is the first time I have listened to your podcast. I urge all other RepMan blog readers to do so. This was a great, no-holds-barred spirited conversation on a very controversial figure -Steve Jobs. Both sides made very convincing points; methinks a Part 2 is needed.

Why thank you, Julie. We have a blast recording the podcasts and think they do provide a balanced perspective on whatever the topic happens to be. The best one we ever did (in my humble opinion) was a debate between an atheist and an uber religious Peppercommer. You can find it in the Repchatter file. It's MUST listening.

Thanks for the heads-up; I will definitely check it out!
