Lol, tuned in exactly as you were done, apparently!
If you are like me and weren't there for this and don't have a solid hour and a half to stay near a computer screen, I have exported the podcast... Into an actual podcast!
My soundcloud was too full so I had to just put it on my own domain. You can play it there or right-click and save as if you want to download it.
I will be listening to it on my bicycle rides to and from work tomorrow, should be a good listen (hopefully).
If anyone wants any of the other vods converted I am more than willing to do so.
Edit:
Also, I don't know what Jason decided to do with that large noise at the start there, but I fixed it so it doesn't blow your ears out
