I think it would be a lot more ethical if you presented it openly as such, right from the start. For example, the big button at the bottom of the page could say, "Subscribe to our interview-of-the-week series!"

Andrew has spent a lot of time and energy compiling this reference. I don't think it is unreasonable for him to get an email address in exchange. We all love free content but we frankly are not entitled to it.

Thanks Garry.

My goal is to give people 1 interview at a time and see if they listen to more interviews than if I give them 10 at once.

I went with email because it was easier than the other options.

Have you considered adding a tip jar, or a for-pay, instant-access-to-any-interview option?

I don't object to him asking for something in return (the email address you mention, plus the embedded ads).

What I object to is the use of bait-and-switch tactics.
