The CubeCast 2.0 - Montage Released!

How about ditching nationalities and instead do what speedcubing.com used to do, announce improvements in the top 10 of each ranking? Then you'd mention it if Erik got 5.56 in 3x3 (which you wouldn't if you only mentioned NRs).

5) National records that are significant enough for a mention. Decide by yourself.

Define "significant enough". Of course we can't cover everything, but doing it arbitrarily is even less fair. If we decided what records we wanted to mention, then the feeling that certain records were left out becomes much more personal.
 
Okay after thinking about it, the best option is probably to just ditch national records entirely and only do continental and world records.

(have you recorded yet)
 
We didn't announce this yesterday, but the episode with Jay McNeill is out! =D Listen to it here: http://cubecast.cubing.net/episodes/cubecast2.0/CubeCast 2.0 Episode 4 - Jay McNeill final.mp3

It will be on YouTube very soon! This was recorded on April Fools' Day, and life (as well as recording issues) got in the way of getting this out in a timely manner and with good audio quality. We'll try our best next time.

Speaking of next time, our next guest is newly inducted WCA Board Member, Pedro Santos Guimarães! Send us your questions, as we're recording on Saturday!
 
After the long hiatus from making episodes the CubeCast has got some very exciting guests lined up. Please check out our episode with Pedro under episodes! There was no puzzler for this week but we hope to have them in episodes to come.

As always the CubeCast relies heavily on listener submission questions, and the past couple of episodes have been lacking, so even if your questions are extremely wacky or strange we would appreciate seeing them in our inbox at [email protected]

We’re doing a listener tagline raffle, if you would like to be entered into the chance of winning a $5 gift code to thecubicle.us all you have to do is just send us an email with your purposed listener taglines. Limit 1 entry per person, so give us the best tagline you can. All approved taglines will end up on the website and if we like it enough, we’ll feature it on the show, regardless if you win the prize or not. (Email or message the Facebook page if you have any question about this)

Stay tuned for your next episode (which we have already recorded and hope to have out soon) with Collin Burns and Antoine Cantin and keep a lookout for our next guest announcement on our Facebook page!

Make sure to send us your feedback, suggestions and questions to our email!

Thanks for listening!

Ranzha, Waffo, and Mitch
 
Hi, we're still working iTunes stuff. As with all of our things, we had to start out fresh and lots of stuff is still in construction! We'll update everything when we get everything working (no ETA at the moment). But we'll announce it when it happens.

Just a note, you don't actually need to be on iTunes to have a podcast feed. People may have an easier time finding you if you are, but it's mostly irrelevant. There are various free sites that can host a podcast feed such as Feedburner, or if you want something fancier with more handholding you can get podbean for $3 a month which isn't much.
 
Here is episode 6 with JRCuber! We are experiencing some issues with our site right now and the only way to listen to the episode is to click on the link which has the file, we will try to straighten out this issue as soon as possible that way the episode is view-able through the episode list. Our next guest for episode 7 will be with the one and only Anthony Brooks, and we plan to record the epsiode at US Nationals.

Awesome. Just a few small things:

- The competitor who gave me the scramble got it by getting the actual scramble for himself officially, not from video of others.
- The 0.58 would've been 4.21, not DNF.
- The pyraminx single WR was 6 moves because it was before move limits in comp existed. It was not a mistake in scrambling.
