New Podcast Feeds

As  I start to move services I am implementing a few changes that you should be aware of. I am putting up new feeds for the podcasts which means if you don’t want to miss any podcast content then you need to plug in new feeds into the podcatcher you use to get our content. The list bellow will give you the feeds to use. The change will happen over the next month and I will give you updates on the podcasts themselves so you can be aware. The only podcast this change does not effect is God Is Great because I had enough hindsight to already run the feed through feedburner when I first started the podcast.

The new studio layout

We recently remodeled the samcast studios and just like last time I figured I would give you a tour of the new changes we have made.

If you missed the first studio setup video and want details about the equipment I use in the setup in more detail check out the first video here:

I’m very happy with the changes we have made and look forward to another 100 episodes in a brand new and more professional setup!
