Henson has distributed the show through a variety of media, including telephony company Tellme,[2] and various Internet radio stations.

In 2005, the Columbus Dispatch profiled Henson[3] on the occasion of his first Podcasting award. The article was written when Henson still had a "day job" and was not yet supporting himself entirely on proceeds from Distorted View subscribers.
