Please kick the tires folks, everything ran well from an initial go.

Read the script, it's adjustable. Download, change your version and run. They are listed as they help 'cover all bases' as they are used by some gems that people might need.

Here is a script that I wrote and have been using, should work on most Linux's and OSX to bootstrap a Rails Development environment. Also ensures that git is installed. You can run it with one command (after reading it's contents of course) as follows:

curl -O https://github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/blob/master/contrib/boot... && source bootstrap_rails_environment

This automates installing the prerequisites across many Linux package management types and then bootstraps a Rails development environment using RVM.

Very well written article on the why of RVM & PerlBrew.

Very enjoyable podcast indeed!!!
