== Cheap Purchases ==


'''Myke Hurley:''' Now, I, I do have a couple of, um, purchases that I've made, but they're, they're actually quite cheap purchases and which I'm going to talk about a minute. But before we do that, we do have a sponsor again this week. Um, we are sponsored again this week by Instacast for iOS, which is a podcast catcher, pod catcher, podcast playing application. Um, honored to be sponsored again by an application that I love so much. Um, you know, for anybody that's listening to this show, I would like to think that by now they've gone out and checked out Instacast at least because it is an absolutely fantastic application. Um, it is one that I use daily. Um, and I wouldn't, I can't really imagine wanting to use another application or another system to download podcasts. Instacast does everything so perfectly for me and it's just become part of my daily routine. Um, it's an application that I use so frequently in my iPhone that I can't imagine moving devices. It's one of those apps that I'm so used to, um, and use so often. And I'm so, you know, just so invested in that to move to like say an Android phone where Instacast doesn't belong. I don't think, I think that's one of the apps that would stop me from doing it.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah, I think very, very much so. I'm, I don't know if you're like me, but you know, I, I tend to, you know, I always like to download my episodes. I don't, I don't necessarily stream them when I leave the house, even though I can, I get mad when I forget to sync and, and, and download all the latest episodes before I leave the house. And I get in the car, I'm like, Oh, I didn't sync up all my, I don't have all the latest episodes in there. You know, because I, that's one thing when I drove to Atlanta, it's only about an hour and a half for me. You know, one of the first things I did in the morning was went over to my phone, synced Instacast. So I made sure I had all the most recent podcasts in my list. And I listened to, um, one on the way up there and, you know, I think two on the way back. So, um, it's, it's almost an everyday app for me. And I don't know if you know, I'm sure you noticed it, that I was actually surprised with the feedback we got after last episode. We're talking about it. People are like, wow, I've never heard of that. This is where, where have I been? You know, what rock have I been living under? Cause this is an awesome app. So it was a real positive feedback on it. And you should definitely check it out. If, um, you know, you listen to podcasts at all. This is a, a real no brainer.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Exactly. So if you haven't yet checked out Instacast, really you should. Um, it comes with mine and Brad's seal of approval for sure. Very much so. You can do that by going to Vemedio, which is V E M E D I O.com. forward slash Instacast. I'll click the link in the show notes and it will take you straight to the app store. It's only one 99.

'''Myke Hurley:''' So I did say that I wasn't going to make any large purchases and I haven't made any large purchases, but I did today need to buy a new Moskin notebook for, for the day job because I've run out. Okay.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' So I went and picked. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. I'm going to stop you right here. You don't have 50 notebooks in your closet. Like I do that. You can just go pick from, you actually use one all the way through, then go to the store and buy a new one.

'''Myke Hurley:''' The, of the Moleskines. Yes. I mean, I have a big stack of field notes books. And I have, I basically have a, like a stack of eight working Moskins for the shows and a couple of field notes, but I don't stock up on the Moleskines too much. I tend to have a lot of the smaller notebooks, but for work, I like to have one of the, like the medium size Moskin journals. I got a soft cover because I remember we were talking about a soft cover. I love the soft cover ones. I don't know why I don't buy more of them. Yeah. Hopefully this weekend, I'm going to be my co-host on the bro show, Terry. He's going to a new arts and crafts store that's opened in Soho in London. Okay. And they, they've got a stocking of the Lego Moleskines. Oh. So I'm going to get a couple of those. I'll put those in the show notes because if you haven't seen the Lego Moleskines, they're so awesome.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Those are so cool.

'''Myke Hurley:''' They've got like a little Lego block embedded into the cover. I know. So you can put Lego on it. How great is that?

'''Brad Dowdy:''' You can build right off the cover. It's a trip.
