Pocket Sized Podcast 110: Encryptonomicon

Posted on April 30, 2013 by Scott

Scott and Peter talk about iPGMail, an app for encrypting and decrypting messages and files with PGP compatible encryption on iOS devices. John Nemo brings us the World’s Shortest Reviewcast, with the world’s shortest Lightning to USB cable, and two volumes of classical music excitement. Finally, Scott lists some of the iOS and Apple related podcasts he’s been listening to lately.

Feed Update

Posted on October 3, 2012 by Scott

As you know if you’re a listener of the podcast, I am moving away from using Feedburner and just pointing people to the site generated feed instead.

Please see the Subscribe page for how to subscribe in iTunes or for the feed URL to subscribe manually.

If you are using iTunes, the feed address will update automatically for you, and there is nothing to do. I verified today that iTunes has updated to the correct feed.

If you are using Downcast or another non-iTunes related Mac, Windows, or iOS app to listen to the podcast, you will need to resubscribe to the podcast. You should just be able to unsubscribe, search for the podcast again using the software’s search feature, and then subscribe again.

If your software doesn’t have the capability of searching for podcasts and you have to add the podcast back manually, please see the Subscribe page for the feed URL you’ll need to enter.

Sorry for doing this again. I’m really disappointed in how Google has dropped the ball on Feedburner.

Download the Pocket Sized Podcast Theme Song!

Posted on September 20, 2012 by Scott

I mentioned on the last podcast that I was going to talk to Bryan and see if we could make the podcast theme available for download in high quality. Bryan came through for us, and even made a page on his web site with all of his current podcast theme songs.

Have I mentioned that Bryan Page rocks?

Download the Pocket Sized Podcast theme song and listen to Bryan’s other theme songs at http://jestamusic.com/themetunes and then listen to all the other great music he’s got up on his web site at http://music.jestamusic.com/ … You won’t be sorry!
