Quick notice to podcast listeners

By Tom Schultz  //  Blog Post  //  No Comments

I have recently changed the podcast URL to http://feeds2.feedburner.com/PointlessRantsPodcast. The site RSS will still contain the podcasts but if you want only the podcasts then this new feed is the one you want. I’m trying to make this transition as fluid as possible.
