    Sheesh, guys, thanks. Your timing is great, I just had my iPod touch watered and turned into a brick. *dramatic sigh*

    But awesome idea nonetheless. That was a feature I always missed because I usually had a couple of non-consecutive podcasts on my iPod and never knew why I had chosen a certain one. Thanks for implementing that feature.

    Now I just need a new iPod. Or better: the iPhone.

    I really justed wanted to see my name on the screen for the Garypaloozas, but if other people can benefit from it in other ways, that’s good too.

    Wait a minute… you only told me about that feature to increase your self-pimping visibility?

    Aww, man…. ;)

  4. Starstuff says:

    Guys, are you going to make this feature available for the past 159 episodes as well? *retreats and runs*

    BTW: The screenshot shows the ep summary of show 160. Is that one for real? The summary? Or did you just make a mockup? Because that very last sentence is incredibly intriguing.

  5. Summer says:

    Yes, that’s for real. If you don’t have an iPhone or iPod Touch, but you’re collecting the podcast in iTunes, and you do a “Get Info”, you’ll see that same text in the Lyrics field.

    And yes, someone sent in a voicemail throwing that wish out to the universe.

    And holy cow… going back and adding that to 159 episodes? You already know how much work I’ve got on my plate! :)

    Yes, I do. That’s why ducked away immediately after writing it ;) Nah, it was just a question to tease you. I know about the feature inside iTunes, used it quite often. Even though I wish it was searchable. I found myself coming to this site sometimes and using your ‘Search’ function instead so I could get the desired content faster.

    It could also be nice to have a direct link to all the episodes that have had cast/crew interviews, they could be listed on a separate page under the name of the guest. If there is such a feature, I’ve missed it. It can be slow and tedious to find those shows from the archives, going through them one by one… as long as we’re throwing suggestions out here. :)

  8. Summer says:

    That’s actually something that’s been on the drawing board since last year. Adding links to old posts is easier than adding tags to 159 archived MP3 files :)

    By the way, some of this stuff appears in Windows Media Player when playing the podcasts as well.

  10. Summer says:

    Cool! Does anyone know if the show notes appear in any other players besides iPod Touch/iPhone and Windows Media Player?

    thanks! keep ‘em coming.
