awesome as always sir. have you thought about setting up a podcast feed for these that’ll work in iTunes?

Thank you very much — I’m glad you’re enjoying them. I’m loathe to register them officially with iTunes because of possible legal wrangles. I’m not exactly using these tracks within fair use conventions, as far as I know. You can, however, set up iTunes to download the latest episodes. Simply subscribe to the RSS link (there’s a subtle link to it on the homepage):

I put some of these on my playlist at work the other day, because I wanted something chill to listen to while I worked on some computers at my bench. One of my coworkers walked up and immediately became interested in what I was playing. Apparently he likes to listen to ambient while playing in the pool tournaments he participates in.
So I downloaded my favorite episodes and burned a CD for him. The next day he arrived at work and informed me he had handed the proverbial ass to his opponent in the game he played that night.
And now? Well, I’m excited as ever to see a new episode up. Surprised, really. Today should be interesting.
