Info for Listener pages[]

I moved the following entries here before summarizing them for the main article. We're trying to keep most of these to one short paragraph, but this is great info for listener profile pages. I'm moving the originals here for more convenient copy-paste. -- Feld 23:09, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Eric the Graphic Designer from Minneapolis (not him the other one)

Real name: Eric Burke. Eric is a regular listener, but infrequent contributor. His contributions normally take the form of the smart-*** in the back of the classroom and as such don't make it on the air (with only one exception). The unwieldiness of the name comes from the possibly mistaken belief that he had heard another resident of Buzztown use the same name much earlier. He hadn't heard it in a while and so decided to pirate it. He is a graphic designer, photographer, and blogger in real life.

James (the game developer) from Irvine

James C. Smith grew up in Milwaukee Wisconsin but has made Sothern California is new home for the past 12 years.
