"Ramifications"? Are you going to bring a lawsuit and try to get the radio station closed down?
No. As above, I went to lengths to ensure the show wasn't compromised. - Not on account of yourself, but on account of the other contributors. The decision to close down your show for a while was not mine or one I requested/anticipated.

The spoonerism thing is a bit of an own goal on your part, as for the first couple of years FMF insisted it was a pseudonym to give the impression more writers were involved. This of course was ludicrous as a pseudonym by design should not be relatable to a persons real name (as a spoonerism is).
It was just a light-hearted pseudonym. Why didn't you contact me to say you wanted to use a different one or that you wanted only one story in the show?


@FMF

You seem unable to acknowledge this:

Far from setting out to sabotage your show I went to lengths to ensure it wasn't compromised. MixCloud offered to delete the recorded shows completely, but I asked them simply to splice out my stories and then emailed you in good time, before the next broadcast, giving you the opportunity to plug the gaps left. (Which you did). My direct contact with the Radio show was to ensure that none of my work appeared on future broadcast. I simply had lost trust that you would ensure this.

Your "direct contact with the radio show" was a preposterous accusatory letter that seemingly purported to be from a government official of some kind.

Let's explore that. Your initial explanation for the name change was that you wanted to give the impression more writers were involved in the show. You stated that clearly.

Let's assume a contributor was called Dave Perry. Which of the following 2 name changes would lead listeners to believe it was a different contributor:

1 Michael Green (Pseudonym)
2. Pave Derry (Spoonerism)

So you didn't like the choice of light-hearted pseudonym. You should have PM'd me about it.

You have been hoodwinked sir. Simple as that.

Bump for FMF

How about you address the substance of the post.

This is why you chose, not the easiest course of action, but instead the most spiteful course of action you could think of?

Already responded to.

I have.

You weren't responding to PMs or emails, hey?

Did you send one asking for the pseudonym to be changed?
