This is a podcast, not rocket science. You see the link? That points to an mp3 file. You download the file, you listen to the mp3. If you don't want to come back to the site so often, you use iTunes or Juice and subscribe. End of story.
I also thought I should tell you, we use adult language sometimes, so consider yourself warned.

Server Crap

I know I am behind in posting last week's episode, but I have been dealing with server crap. Everything is getting moved to a new machine, and that is the half-dozen sites I maintain, not just the podcast. Look for BUNCHES of new stuff this week.

Also, we are on iTunes' Podcast directory now. Just search the music store for 'crapface' and we will be the only result.

You can also use the following link: You Can't Spell Crapface Without PFA on iTunes

If you love us, you will click on our Google ads (^up there^). If you want to be on the show, or you want to tell us we suck (or that we don't), you can send an email to pfalliance@gmail.com or leave comments (at the bottom of each post).
