Hand Coding versus Using a WYSIWYG Editor | We understand that some time has passed (I believe we recorded the show around October), but a lot of what we discuss in the news and updates and the interview is still rather relevant. The buy out of Gowalla by Facebook has come and gone at this point. Many people are actually unaware of what Gowalla was. Jane was kind enough to play ;taps' for the short lived life of the geotagging network. | 2/29/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

How to Better Understand Your Audience with James McQuarrie | Three shows in and we’re still running strong. Having James come on the show was a blast, even if we tried 3 separate times to record the interview. That just means that I wound up with a major load of good content to play around with. you tend to find that you get two different UI/UX/IA people together, they can gab on and on about what’s awesome and exciting about UX for hours like teenage girls. And I’ve also fostered a new found love for skype on the iPhone. The quality of the audio was pretty impressive. | 7/28/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Customer Reviews
Great Information for Designers
Overall Jacob's interview was great. I enjoyed the information he shared and got some great new ideas for the way I handle my own graphic projects.
Regarding the Jacob Cass interview...
I appreciated this interview a lot. It's nice to hear people that have been making it pretty big in their world to be willing to open up and be candid with some good questions. I appreciate the laid back feel of the podcast. Josh and Jane do a really job with it. This is matt_gavenda signing out.
Tapping into Great Minds
I subscribed after hearing the Jacob Cass interview. After having written a blog post about presenting hand-drawn sketches to clients, it was ironic and interesting to hear Jacob's comments about it.
Great blog and great to see that they don't alienate other bloggers but welcome them in. Awesome.
