How do I get the new feed into iTunes? The link on the sidebar isn’t working yet…

Part of the link says that there is no new one yet. Tanya was supposed to investigate what to do :/
We’ll eventually get it going. I have no idea how to use iTunes.

Oh, I totally rock.
iTunes users can: go to the “Advanced” dropdown menu in iTunes, and select “Subscribe to podcast”. Paste in: http://wcbeacon.rampagenetwork.com/?feed=podcast
I only figured this out because Webcomics Weekly also switched recently, though they weren’t clever enough to put a note into the old feed letting us know (I guess they just assume all their listeners read their webcomics and blogs? Sorry, but no. I thought they just stopped podcasting for the summer!), and posted how to do this. I tried it for TWB, and voila!
You’re welcome.

Hey, if you want to make Becky look sexier, just have her wear glasses. That adds about +10 Hawtness Points to almost any woman.
Well, in my opinion, anyway.

Well, try, I think women with glasses look either cuter or sexier. But it’s too late to add glasses as far as her character design goes
I’m not trying to make her a pair of boobs to showcase the episodes. I also have plans to flesh her character out a bit more. Really she’s a cute girl that likes to draw and read webcomics. Beyond that, we’ll see what develops
