Japh is the WordPress evangelist for Envato and is doing great things to better the standards of WordPress across the Envato network. We also chatted about iPhone 5′s, icon fonts, and rare meat.

Our third show! You didn’t think we’d keep going did you? On this show we chatted with special guest Jason Schuller of Press75. We asked him some questions and learned about his new project, Leeflets, which is a drag-and-drop website solution for minimalists. We also chatted about OptionsTree, Mike’s new plugin and a few other tidbits.

Jami Gibbs

mikemcalister — Fri, 29 Jun 2012 01:12:52 +0000

Show number two was twice as good as show number one. Not because of our content, but because of our first special guest, Jami Gibbs. Jami joined us for the full show, where we discussed her position at Envato, the Tuts+ security breach, a few plugins, new tablets and Ridley Scott’s dialogue-inducing Prometheus. Audio levels are still a little off so please enjoy Mike’s all-too-loud microphone.

The first show! Technically anyway. Today we chatted about the recent WordPress 3.4 update, Apple’s jump toward retina, angry customers and the possibility of ditching Photoshop for something more affordable and practical.

This was the BETA podcast, our first attempt at live streaming and recording while keeping an interesting conversation going. We chatted about the technology behind the show, Jake’s HBOGO rant and how he won the internet, the increase in theme prices on ThemeForest, and our latest WordPress theme releases.

Let us know what you think of the show! Any feedback or constructive criticism will be blatantly ignored.
