Great start. I think its important to have an outlet to pull your ideas together (I use a blog but I think the same principle applies to podcasts). It forces you to think through things and form solid opinions, opinions worth sharing.

Looking forward to more podcasts.

If anyone hasn’t checked out Jeremy’s blog yet, you should do so. He’s got some great posts around his upcoming app, Grades, as well as thoughts around building a remarkable (not just good) app.
