I feel like I owe such a huge debt to Ryan and don't even want him to feel the pressure of 'coming back'... as he already gave so much. Burnout is a serious issue for those that make a living behind a keyboard.

That being said - how would you reenergize in his shoes?

He's been chasing the edge of Rails development for so long - is that where the subscribers come from?

It seems like he gets OVER THE TOP response every time he does a more 'newbie' Railscast - so maybe here are some options to maybe reenergize and keep the subscriber base - what would you like to see?

- More Rails newbie stuff - Exactly like before, after a break - More Multi-session 'building a complete app' - Guest speaker sessions - Evolve to more of a 'how to tackle programmer challenges' - Evolve to more of a 'building web apps' vs. 'only Rails' (ember, meteor, Go)

What else?
