Back Listening to the Daily Source Code

Ok, I had second thoughts about unsubscribing from the Daily Source Code. While I disagree on a lot of things Adam says, I still think it’s important to hear both sides of topics. It’s not good to only listen to people you agree with. I am not going to go as far as to listen to idiots like Bill O’Reilly, Ann Coulter, or Rush Limbaugh, but Adam Curry I can easily handle.

I started listening to his show near the beginning of podcasting back in October of 2004, I haven’t missed an episode since. I shouldn’t let one issue change that.

Adam just hit a sore spot playing that Jenny McCarthy clip. Most of the time I couldn’t care less what crazy stuff you believe in. There are a few sad stories of people that die because they choose some “Alternative” form of medicine instead of some real medicine that actually works. Those stories are sad, but it was that persons choice. When it’s your child, you are messing with someone else’s life.

Childhood vaccines are very important. Like always there is some risk, but it’s very little, and there is no chance at getting Autism. Vaccines have been proven time and time not to cause Autism. Adam for the most part is against Gardasil. I personally don’t know much about that one, so I am not sure where I stand on that one. I am not big of putting drugs in my body unless then are needed. I don’t get a flu shot. I am healthy enough that the flu isn’t going to kill me, but childhood vaccines fall into that needed category for me.

One thing that helped changed my mind was that Adam Curry actually spent the time to leave a comment on my blog. My little blog that almost nobody reads, and he took a few seconds out of his life to read and comment. That meant something to me. I will continue to listen to his show, but I will probably still fast forward the music. Just not my type of music for the most part Adam.
