It recently came to our attention that the iTunes links to some of our shows have been compromised, likely by the ghost of Steve Jobs himself. Luckily our proton packs were charged, and we’ve resolved most of the problems. If you are subscribed in iTunes already, you shouldn’t even have noticed the change, but new listeners can now easily find our shows on iTunes.

The Well Fed Guide To Life and Yet Another Gaming Show links are now working as expected. The Flyover Ska Show has been delisted due to Courtney’s laziness, we are working on getting it relisted. In the mean time, you can still use the FOSS RSS link in iTunes like normal. All other shows are unaffected.

Thank you to Twitter user rogXue for letting us know about this.

Hola (or should I say Bienvenue?) to the newest season of the Flyover Ska Show!  We kicked it off right with a big party at the Triple Rock in Minneapolis with French-Canadian reggae stars The Beatdown.  The Montreal band is currently on a North American tour marking their first time in the North Star State.  After their amazing set, the band relaxed over at Courtney’s house and told him all about the origins of the group, their love for “reggae with an edge,” and why it’s okay to rag on Milwaukee.  Polish off a plate of poutine while you enjoy the latest episode!
