I wish I didn't give a shit about this whole situation. It really doesn't affect me in anyway. However, when I do think about it, this is what comes to mind:

1. John and Dan started the podcast together

2. John came up with the name

3. Something happend between the two of them

4. John leaves, taking the show with him.

From a business perspective, I'm shocked at both John and Dan. John took the whole brand and said it was his and started monitizing it right away, presumably cutting Dan out of any revenue. Dan, is just letting that slide. Doesn't he have a right to half?

Johnny Ive can't simply walk away and use the iPhone design because he came up with the idea.

...anyway, like I said, I really shouldn't give a shit about this whole situations. I just think it stinks.
