Phandroid Podcast: Episode 1

by Rob Jackson on March 9th, 2009 at 10:42 am

Welcome to the first ever Phandroid Podcast! The goal is to record a Podcast every weekend, publishing it every Monday so you kids can kick off your work week right. Let us know what you think – we’re happy to take suggestions/opinions. We’ve had many, many requests for Phandroid Podcasts so I hope you all enjoy this!

The first mistake happens within about 20 seconds… we don’t introduce ourselves! So here are your Episode 1 Phandroid Podcast hosts:

  • Rob Jackson – that’s me and I’m the guy talking first on the Podcast.
  • Joey Sochacki (Devolio from AndroidForums.com) – he jumps in early with the “I want one” comment about the HTC Magic. By the way, Joey, that sounded like a Homer Simpson-esque, “Mmmmmm. Donuts.” Drooling over the Magic, aren’t ya?
  • Spencer Gardner – A contributing writer at Phandroid, Spencer jumps in with, “Yeah, yeah… well like for me, I’m a huge fan of the Android Software…”

Now you know who we are. Time to listen (and hopefully enjoy).

    In regards to the TeleNav/T-Mobile issue, the problem is North Carolina. T-Mobile’s not that great there, especially in the more rural eastern areas heading towards Jacksonville/Camp LeJune.

  • Rob Jackson

    And I was right near Camp Lejune. Although that doesn’t explain my problems in Baltimore where T-Mobile has 3G service.

    Great info. I don’t much care for Sprint, or T-mobile, but I really want an Android phone, so I guess I’ll stick it out with Sprint a while longer (if they don’t go under that is).

    Keep up the good work!

    Want to listen, but when visiting this page on my ANDROID G1 phone, it says I need to install the latest JAVA. Kinda like going to a Windows convention and given a disc with all the info on in but only playable on a MAC. Please update this podcast so we can listen to your ANDROID podcast on our ANDROID phones. Also, if you can put it in a .xml format so we can subscribe, that would be great and would guarantee that we don’t miss it. Thanks!

  • Rob Jackson

    Hhahahaha thanks for the comment Sean. I agree, it should work on your G1. Unfortunately the initial plugin I had running caused compatibility errors and I suppose the Audio Player that I replaced it with has an issue, too. I will look into a solution.

    As for your podcast comment, you can subscribe via http://feeds2.feedburner.com/PhandroidPodcast and we’re working on getting it synced with iTunes as well. We’ll be finding a home on the phandroid homepage/sidebar for the Podcast subscription button.

    Thanks for you input and sorry about the compatibility problem! We’ll get it fixed!

  • Sean

    Thanks for the quick reply….looking forward to listening every week!

    It would be cool if you would invite more famous people from Android scene. Like JesusFreke, LucidREM, harry_m, etc.

    Also the sound is too low. I was listening to it on my G1 with full volume on the device and earphones, and it could still have been better.

  • cgraunke

    I, too, am going back listening to the earlier podcasts and would appreciate access to Episode 1.
    Thanks!

  • C.rime_S.cene

    HEY, i know it’s odd for me to be commenting on your first podcast even though we’re on 13 right now but i came in late to the game and started with EP.1 so here it is. i LOVE how you guys have an incredibly casual laid back and yet super informative atmosphere. and the fact that all three of you sound incredibly attractive is a plus i’ve been following android for only about two months and just found this site. thank you so much for keeping us all up to date with info and keep it comming!!!

    Hi,

    Just subscribed via ‘Listen’ lab app on T-Mobile Pulse (HTC something or other). Are the first two episodes available anywhere?
