Podsuming on a Boilday

16:38 in the queue | 23:31 after downloading today’s new podcasts | 16:37 after removing everything that I’ve already podsumed | 6:54 hours of podsuming for today. Which is cheating of course, because I just counted out the actual play as if I listened to it just today.

Wodenstag’Suming!

  1. BOL 1044: Back that app up
  2. SeoulPodcast Summer Series #3
  3. Variant Frequencies TITLE FIGHT: Round #6

And finally… a Tuesday!

  1. BOL 1043: Nobody wants gummi gas
