I have to admit, somehow the eclectic style of this site (and its buttons, haha) made it likeable.

It has something of "we don't focus on graphical shenanigans, we improve real UX!"

The graphical shenanigans are part of the real UX ;-)
but because everything else seemed to click we have stayed !!!

I think we certainly want to maintain the soul of the site, but it might be nice if new users could figure out how to find a podcast or browse listings. :P

Totally agree about liking the eclectic style,but for me I like it because it gives the place a "made by hands" feel to it.

Totally agree, the "imperfect" UI and kinda "glitch" style is what makes DEV so unique (visually). We obviously don't want to kill that but at the same time I think we will want to find a right balance between style like this AND readability & usability.
