We know what you're thinking--this couldn't possibly happen, not in a million years!
Well, it did! The CubeCast is back!



Click here to go to our new site!


Many thanks to Andrew for supporting us in all this, to our previous hosts for providing a tough act to follow, to Sarah Strong for her amazing montage and archiving skills (without whom the Episodes page would be sorely incomplete), to Tyler Kerr in advance for a lot of great questions, and to Lucas Garron for allowing us to use a cubing.net subdomain!

Also many thanks to theCubicle.us for sponsoring the CubeCast!

Listen to Episode 8 here:

Happy cubing,

Nice work guys!
This might be a technical question -I'm not sure - but is there a way to access this without a computer?
I listen to tons of podcasts via iOS (I use Downcast app because the Apple one sucks so badly) but none of the Cubecasts show up anywhere to download this way (I think the old ones used to be listed in iTunes but they have disappeared)...

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.

OK cool; thanks for the reply
 
I have a suggestion in July or so you should make a 5th birthday special. Which I think should include all the pervious hosts and guests as possible. If you were to do this you'd have to use multiple recording sessions. You could also look at the question archive and have a much longer quick fire question round. This is just an idea that could be expanded on. 5 years in speedcubing is a long time. I think there should be a special episode to commenerate this milestone.
 
AWESOME

Hooray for good music, good hosts, and good content! Also it's great to finally listen to CubeCast episodes when they actually go out, as opposed to years later. I can finally ask quickfire questions!

Now you have to get Thom on during this little reign of episodes, because he's been in at least one episode for every season thus far and if he's not in this one I'll be disappointed. (also why does he look like a completely different person in every single photo/video ive ever seen of him)
 
It's 8 AM on a Tuesday.
After an hour-long drive to work in the snow, I made my coffee, sat down, and opened up my normal "start-of-the-day" tabs.

Quickly, I see the title, hosts, etc. and I'm instantly pulled in.

I put on my headphones, downloaded the episode, and took a sip of my coffee.

Now only four minutes in, I'm in love again;

Awkward. Irregular. Familiar. Nostalgic.
These are all words that describe the first four minutes of this episode to me, and I wouldn't have it any other way.


I'm looking forward to continuing my work day, sitting in the dark and listening to the cubecast.

Good to have this back, guys. Thanks for the feels.

Just so you know, the commercial break music was written by a cuber, Edward King. There's a link in the Credits section of the site where you can check out his stuff! He's pretty new at the whole music production thing, but he's released some awesome stuff so far.

I shouted "23.19!" along with the podcast (around the 14 minute mark). I hope I was not the only one.
YAAAAAASSS
I can't take credit for it though; I got the idea from Mollerz' post last year about the record. Glad to know someone gets the reference!
 
I was wondering about cubecast the other day, glad to see it's up and running again.

Am down with this.
