Is RocketBoom Boomed Out?

The most famous video podcast in history, RocketBoom, is suddenly off the air. A dispute between founder, Andrew Baron, and on-air personality, Amanda Congdon, has flared up and the show in now in hiatus. A mainstream news article about the situation can be found here. But, as is typical of such reporting, it barely scratches the surface of what's really going on.

There are always two sides to every story, but Congdon's seems most credible to me. I get the sense that Baron is just burned out generally and decided to take out his frustrations on his business partner ... in a very public way.
