Coming up on iOS Today, Dan Moran and I share some of our favorite indie apps. Stay tuned.
Dan Moren [00:00:08]:
Podcasts you love from people you trust. This is—
Mikah Sargent [00:00:17]:
this is iOS Today, episode 791, with Dan Moran and me, Micah Sargent, recorded Tuesday, February 17th, 2026, for Thursday, February 26th, 2026. Our favorite Indie apps. Hello and welcome to iOS Today, the show where we talk all things iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, HomePodOS, and, you know, all the OSs and platforms. Uh, I am your host Micah Sargent, and I am joined again this week by the wonderful Dan Moran, East Coast Bureau Chief of Six Colors. Welcome back to the show, Dan.
Dan Moren [00:00:53]:
It's good to be here, Micah. I'm just now learning that it's not pronounced iOS or macOS.
Mikah Sargent [00:00:59]:
You're only just—
Dan Moren [00:01:00]:
only now, only now after this many years I'm learning, uh, I thought it was like a, like cereal or like SpaghettiOs.
Mikah Sargent [00:01:07]:
Oh, oh, got it.
Dan Moren [00:01:08]:
Yeah.
Mikah Sargent [00:01:09]:
O's. Yeah.
Dan Moren [00:01:09]:
Yeah.
Mikah Sargent [00:01:10]:
Oh, uh, I'm thinking of all of the marshmallows I keep stored in my, uh, Mac Studio.
Dan Moren [00:01:16]:
Yeah. This is embarrassing to announce now, but, uh, you know, I just felt like the, the viewers and the listeners deserve to know.
Mikah Sargent [00:01:22]:
And everyone here will support that and not make fun of you for it.
Dan Moren [00:01:27]:
I'm sure everybody is going to be really nice to me.
Mikah Sargent [00:01:30]:
Very kind and very thoughtful. Um, okay, let's, let's get into the show today. I thought it'd be a good time to talk about, uh, some of the, some of the indie apps that we, we use. So by my definition of indie, I just mean, uh, one or a few developers that are not part of a large company making apps. So that Accounts for quite a few of the apps in the App Store, frankly. Um, but these are some of our favorites. And Dan, I will let you kick things off with your first pick.
Dan Moren [00:02:09]:
Yeah, my first pick is actually an app I use every day, and that is Ivory by the fine folks at Tapbots. Ivory is a client for the Mastodon social media network. Uh, Tapbots is the same company that made the very popular Tweetbot app. Before Twitter, before Twitter fell into the sea. That's all I've heard about it anyways. Um, and Ivory is their attempt to adapt, uh, the Tweetbot ethos and aesthetic to Mastodon. And I think it is incredibly successful. Um, it's an app that runs not only on iOS and iPadOS, but macOS as well.
Dan Moren [00:02:42]:
Um, it's got a really clean, nice interface. It's got an adorable elephant mascot, uh, and it works great. Uh, I really love it. You know, for me it meant that the— change of social media networks from Twitter/X to Mastodon was kind of seamless because Tweetbot had always been the way I, I used, uh, Twitter. And so when I switched to Ivory, it was kind of like, well, I'm using the same app. It's just a different, you know, service on the other side of it. But it feels— I feel at home here. Uh, it's customizable in terms of you can like change the, the color gradients.
Dan Moren [00:03:16]:
You can, you know, customize your toolbars. It's got a lot of great features for like stats and, you know, filtering different types of notifications or filtering specific, uh, types of content, mute filters, all this stuff, all the stuff that you expect from being able to do in Mastodon, the web interface, you can pretty much do, uh, in Ivory as well. Um, it has a, I believe a yearly, um, subscription fee option, which I really like, which I think is, I wanna say is like $25 a month. And that gets you the iOS, iPadOS, and macOS versions, but there are also monthly and yearly versions for just the Mac or just the iOS and iPadOS, um, you know, versions as well. So whatever you want or whatever platforms you use it on, there is a pretty simple option for you there. Um, and yeah, I, I'm a big fan of Tapbots. They have, uh, also, you know, they have other apps as well and they've reputedly been working on a Bluesky kind of equivalent, although it's still not out yet, but, um, Yeah, if you're a Mastodon user, honestly, I cannot recommend Ivory highly enough.
Mikah Sargent [00:04:18]:
Yeah, I also use Ivory. Um, and I, I think it is sort of the, the choice. I know there have in the past been some accessibility issues with Ivory. Um, I have heard that some of those have been worked out, but, um, if you are someone who makes use of, uh, the accessibility features within apps. I'd love to hear where your experience currently is as far as, as far as Ivory goes. Uh, the next app, the one that I want to talk about today, is a recent addition to the App Store. I've been following along, uh, with it for quite some time because it is an app that, um, lets you make wallet passes from basically any PDF that you upload into it. So it's an app called NeatPass, and the idea is that sometimes different events, different venues will use ticketing services that do not have Apple Wallet additions.
Mikah Sargent [00:05:30]:
So you are probably used to getting an email and it says, you know, tap here to add tickets, and then you go there and it says add to Apple Wallet, and that's handy dandy, right? But not everything works that way. Some services, you know, are very expensive. And so, uh, then you might not use that here in Portland. There are lots of different places to go and quite a few of them use pretty cheap ticketing services and therefore, uh, don't have that added functionality. So I have found this even more useful where I live now, but essentially all you do is you import a PDF and then it locally on device uses Apple's AI, uh, technology to parse the PDF that you upload to it and create a pass for you. And I'm trying to figure out how I can show you this, um, uh, this pass without actually giving away. So I think I'll change the, uh, ticket code here. And I will remove the, uh, the barcode in order to adjust it.
Mikah Sargent [00:06:45]:
And so let me show you, I will hit this. Uh, so I had a PDF sent to me via email for a show, uh, at the Crocodile in Seattle. And I needed to, um, I didn't have an add to wallet thing. And so what I did was I, from the email, there was a webpage that it took me to. I just, I think I actually just hit the share sheet button and, uh, shared this into, uh, NeatPass and it made that this, this little pass here for me. Um, you can edit passes so you can change like their types. So they could be an event ticket, a boarding pass, a coupon, and you can change the name, the date, the location where it is. Um, you can even add information like the, uh, the, the seat that you have.
Mikah Sargent [00:07:37]:
So section A, let's go section A, uh, row 2, seat 1, and we'll go floor 2. And there's no access code, uh, so we will hit enter and then you can see that information is added as well. Um, You can make changes to the pass like adding a photo for the logo. You can, uh, put a banner on the pass. You can change the barcode. And again, at any time, all you have to do is simply, uh, import via PDF your, uh, specific pass. Now it is available for you to create one pass for free. Uh, afterward you will need to pay, um, it's just $4.99 one-time purchase to be able to create passes.
Mikah Sargent [00:08:34]:
Now I have, uh, covered other apps before that do similar things. MakePass is the very well-known one. It's one that I currently even have installed. I have it installed on my Mac and MakePass is also a way to customize and create, uh, Apple Wallet passes. But the difference here is that Um, with, with NeatPass, you're doing this all on device. And so knowing that, you know, the, the AI processing that's happening is happening locally, uh, can be a relief for, for some as, uh, for sure. So that is NeatPass, uh, an indie app that just hit the App Store recently. All right.
Mikah Sargent [00:09:20]:
Tell us about your next pick, Dan.
Dan Moren [00:09:22]:
Uh, my next pick is one of my personal favorite categories of apps. Uh, I don't know why, but it's always fascinated me, the ability to, uh, view one device from another device. And so it's Screens, um, from Adovia, which is a VNC client. Um, I really— I've used Screens for years. Uh, so if you use your phone or your iPad and you're like, oh, I need to get to something that's on my Mac or on a PC or something like that, you might be sitting there going, oh no, how am I going to do that? I'm just on my phone. Well, using Screens, you can screen share into your home computer. Uh, and just use it. Uh, you know, it's not like I'm gonna be sitting there typing long emails on it or whatever, but like I have used this from very far away to get access, uh, to something, a file I left open or, uh, file I needed to move into cloud storage.
Dan Moren [00:10:13]:
So it'll be available on my device that I've taken with me. Um, Screens works really well. It's very user-friendly. Um, one of the things I really like about the latest version is that it actually also integrates directly with Tailscale. So if you're somebody who uses Tailscale to create your own little private network, um, Screens can show you other clients that are on your Tailscale network that you can log into and scare— view the screen of. Um, it also has a very handy little, uh, utility called Screens Connect, which you run on your home computer that simplifies the process of dealing with firewalls and port forwarding and all of that. Uh, and also I've— that's been absolutely critical for me in times when it's like, oh yeah, I don't, don't even remember how to get into it. What— how am I going to find the IP address at home? No, you don't have to worry about it.
Dan Moren [00:10:58]:
Screens Connect makes that a breeze. Um, it's just, you know, there are plenty of other screen sharing apps, but what I really like about Screens is that it, it tends to be extremely reliable for me. Uh, like I said, the design is really nice. It works across all of Apple's platforms. Um, and it's, you know, made by a really small company that is, uh, uh, you know, just a couple guys. Um, I think there's a yearly subscription for $25. Uh, there are monthly subscriptions and there's also, a lifetime plan if you, uh, want to get that. That's like $140, which is, you know, not, not cheap necessarily, but this is like a professional level tool.
Dan Moren [00:11:37]:
Most people probably don't need, you know, a screen sharing tool all the time, but if you're somebody who, you know, does, it's well worth it. So I highly, highly recommend Screenz, um, which again I've been using for many, many, many years.
Mikah Sargent [00:11:53]:
Uh, I also use screens. Uh, I, I don't think I do as much as you do. Uh, but when I do, I don't think I do as much as you do in terms of—
Dan Moren [00:12:05]:
I just log in all the time. I'm just screen sharing sometimes just for fun.
Mikah Sargent [00:12:10]:
Yeah. Uh, but what I do, screens is just re— I, especially what you're talking about there, you know, there's so much behind the scenes garbage that has to happen when it comes to this kind of network attachment. And so just having it do what it needs to do is so good. It makes it a lot easier to not have to worry about what's going on. My next app pick is a, uh, a favorite for sure. And here's the thing, when you're thinking about dice, you're probably thinking first—
Dan Moren [00:12:42]:
all the time, Micah, which you—
Mikah Sargent [00:12:44]:
yeah, which you should be doing regularly. Um, most of the time people are probably thinking about some sort of, you know, uh, tabletop role-playing game, or they're thinking about about, um, you know, needing to roll dice for a board game, right? Here's the good thing: a, a, an app that can roll dice is basically just a random number generator. And so you can use your— the app that I'm about to mention for more than just playing D&D, although that's a great thing. Uh, it can be used for, you know, generating all sorts of random numbers. Uh, the app that I am mentioning next, made by friend of the show, friend of the network, James Thompson. It's called Dice by P-Calc, and this app is a dice roller that lets you flip a coin, roll a 4-sided die, roll a 6-sided die, um, roll a 12-sided die, coward. The only one I'm not going to roll, son of a— I'm sorry. Um, And also you can roll a custom coin that has my dog Henry on one side and my dog Mizzy on the other side.
Mikah Sargent [00:14:03]:
Um, and so I got Mizzy this time. I don't know which one's heads or tails. You don't call that, you call Henry or Mizzy. Um, in any case, this is a really fun app that has all sorts of customization options built in. You can create custom rolls. You can do things like advantage and disadvantage if you are trying to go for that. Um, you can see the history of previous rolls, uh, you can see different totals. You can also head into the settings and you again here can go through so many different options of styles and tints and the, the lighting in the room, uh, whether it speaks the results.
Mikah Sargent [00:14:42]:
But if you go into the help screen— wait, this is still where it is, right? If you go into the help screen, I haven't been in this in a long time. Dan, Yes. Is it still around?
Dan Moren [00:14:53]:
Uh, if you roll a, a critical or what—
Mikah Sargent [00:14:57]:
I thought that there was all— there was the game within the help.
Dan Moren [00:15:00]:
Oh no, that's in— that's a— so that was originally in P-Calc. Oh, and, and then it's now— I think it's also available as a separate app now called like About Screen by P-Calc or something like that. That's right.
Mikah Sargent [00:15:12]:
Okay. For some— okay. I am— yeah, I'm combining the two. Well, that's the other good news is that Um, you are able to also download—
Dan Moren [00:15:24]:
here, hold on, let's see, because while you're talking about that, I'll tell you this most important feature of Dice by P-Calc, which is if you roll— if you're using it for D&D and you're rolling a 20-sided die and you roll a 20, uh, or you roll a 1, you will get an audio message telling you that you got a critical hit or a critical fail. And, um, let's just say it's by a particularly well-known person. It's me. I did it. I did the audio for that. So if you ever get a critical hit in Dice by P-Calc, you can hear me telling you, you got a critical hit. So there's a little Easter egg for you.
Mikah Sargent [00:16:01]:
Yes. And I have found that if you go into the help section and you scroll all the way down and choose about Dice by P-Calc, there is a fun little Easter egg in here. Um, which is a set of cool visualizations of different dice. So there's something, um, but not what I thought. Aha, bananas! There we go. And so very fun, good stuff. Love, uh, James and the work that James does, and love Dice by P-Calc. Um, all of the apps we've mentioned thus far, free with in-app purchases, uh, so easy to to go and try them out.
Mikah Sargent [00:16:44]:
All right, Dan, tell us about the last of your favorite indie apps.
Dan Moren [00:16:50]:
Well, this one is one that I find particularly useful to me because I'm a bit of a television junkie. Uh, I like watching lots of television shows, um, both, you know, older shows that maybe I'm working my way through or newer shows that are dropping episodes or new seasons. But the problem is when you, do the— I know I make it sound like I'm the laziest person in the world. No, I just really enjoy TV as a medium. But, uh, if any— you're anything like me and you're like, I'm following all these TV shows, but it's hard to remember when a new episode or a new season comes out, or maybe even when it arrives on a streaming service, or maybe even what streaming service is on. Well, one of the things that can help with that is Television Time, uh, which is an app I really like, uh, by an independent developer whose name I definitely should have looked up, but I didn't because that is the kind of amazing person that I am, and I'm doing it right now as I vamp. Uh, Maximilian Littoral is the developer of Television Time. Um, I enjoy this a lot.
Dan Moren [00:17:50]:
I use it for, uh, all of my TV watching tracking. Uh, if you use a service like, um, Trakt, uh, T-R-A-K-T, it can integrate with that. I don't bother. I just have it all on my device because I want to know, you know, like, oh, where did I leave off in that season? Or, uh, what show— when is the next episode of this show coming out? Or when is the next season of this show drop? Uh, and I find it a great way to keep in track with that. So you can, you know, put all the shows you want to watch in it. Uh, it also has great support for things like, um, you can have it hide episode synopses for episodes you haven't watched yet so that it doesn't spoil you on anything. You can rate episodes if you're into that. It's not really what I use it for.
Dan Moren [00:18:29]:
I really just want it for sort of my, uh, keeping track of where I am. But, um, yeah, it does even give you like cast and crew information. It can give you where to watch information. Um, you know, it has, uh, widgets that you can use on your home screen if you want. Um, all that stuff looks great, really easy to use. Um, yeah, I mean, and again, as a bit of a TV junkie Uh, I do end up using it quite a bit.
Mikah Sargent [00:18:58]:
Nice. Well, that folks is, uh, the list of some of our favorite indie apps. Would love to hear about yours. If you have indie apps that you think we should have mentioned on the show, you can email us. iosToday@twit.tv is how you get in touch. Uh, moving along, Dan, can you tell us— I heard that Apple has a special event planned for March 4th. Do you know anything about this? What are your thoughts? It's your speculation.
Dan Moren [00:19:26]:
An event, but they have said it is a special Apple experience. Xpérience. Yeah. I don't even know what that means. It's happening on March 4th at 9:00 AM Eastern, but it's also happening in 3 places, New York, London, and Shanghai, which is interesting. Um, not a lot known about this right now. The, the graphic that they sent out, which, you know, people love to, uh, dissect and try to find hidden meaning in shows kind of like this various like liquid glass stacks of, of, you know, circles that make up the Apple logo in a variety of colors, yellow, green, and blue. Um, there's, uh, several things that are expected around this time.
Dan Moren [00:20:11]:
So we could see any subset of that. I mean, this goes all the way from, uh, the iPhone 17e, which is the, you know, successor to the 16e, which we're, we're expected to see at some point this spring. Uh, updates to iPads, um, a new MacBook Pro with the M5 Pro and M5 Max chips, uh, maybe even a new Studio Display. There's any number of things. Um, we're also expecting to hear more at some point about some of these smarter Siri features that Apple has promised, though recent reports suggest those may be delayed. Um, and of course the, the thing that people have seized on with these different colors is this introduction of a a low-cost MacBook built around one of the A-series chips that powers the iPhone. So, uh, that's expected to potentially come in a variety of colors, hearkening back to maybe some of those classic iBooks that Apple released way back in the 2000s, um, and, you know, bringing some color to the, the MacBook line basically in the first time since forever. I mean, I'm not counting the Midnight Blue and the Champagne Gold one, sorry.
Dan Moren [00:21:16]:
It's not that much color. Uh, so yeah, I mean, unclear exactly what this is going to involve. Sounds a little bit different than sort of what they tend to do at Apple Park with a big livestreamed event. Um, it could be anything from, you know, press being briefed and, uh, press releases being issued to potentially some sort of, some sort of video. Um, the spring event that Apple typically holds is often one of the places they play a little bit with format and, you know, how they handle these things and they kind of experiment a little bit and try some different stuff. So it doesn't surprise me that we're seeing this. We've also seen them do these in the East Coast a bunch, um, as well as I think they did one before that was in London as well. So yeah, lots of possibilities.
Dan Moren [00:21:59]:
We don't know a ton, but obviously we're expecting a lot of announcements from Apple soon. So we'll have to tune in on March 4th and see what they have for us. And also March 4th, it's a, it's a great day for, uh, issuing commands. March 4th, Micah. March 4th. March 4th.
Mikah Sargent [00:22:14]:
And commence battle! And I will. Um, moving along now to our feedback segment. We've got some feedback coming up. Uh, Doug in Minneapolis has written in to say the following— oh, and by the way, this is just feedback, uh, it's not a question, and we love this as well. Um, Doug says, love the show and watch it on YouTube when I can. I'm excited for the Creator Studio model. I've avoided using Final Cut and Logic Pro due to the cost and the learning curve. I've become really proficient with GarageBand and iMovie, but I want to learn One more, since my iPad is on its last legs, I now know I can wait and get the 3-month free subscription to everything and find out if it will be cost-effective for me to switch.
Mikah Sargent [00:22:55]:
What I really like about the subscription is that it includes the apps for both iPad and Mac, which basically means that one would only see a $30 per year increase in their subscription. I also use Freeform a lot for online presentations when working on projects. Works great for mind maps. Keep up the great show. I've watched it since it started in the cottage. Doug, thank you so much for writing in. Uh, yeah, Creator Studio for people who make use of these tools, I think it's going to be a great deal. I have reminded everyone in the past, if you do currently have a subscription to the iPad version of Final Cut Pro and you get Creator Studio, you do need to go and cancel your Final Cut Pro subscription for iPad so that you're not charged for both, because this, this subscription will include access to that app.
Mikah Sargent [00:23:47]:
Um, there's supposed to be a lot more with this as we continue to see Apple add to Creator Studio and roll out the changes and add the AI stuff. Uh, so we'll continue to see the value here hopefully increase over time. Um, but in its current state, uh, it's been fun kind of— I've been playing around with, with Creator Studio a little bit and, and trying out, um, the functionality that's currently available. Uh, Dan, have you since we last talked, uh, have you had the opportunity to, uh, mess around in Creator Studio anymore?
Dan Moren [00:24:18]:
I actually have not really spent any time with it. Um, it's intriguing to me, but I don't have a project right now that requires me to use Final Cut Pro or something, which would probably be the real driver. Um, you know, I, I own Logic on my Mac and I use it on my Mac, and the Logic version for iPadOS and iOS is not good for what I want to do with it. Um, and I haven't— I do have all the new versions of the iWork apps, but I've yet to be enticed by whatever mysterious and magical AI features they possess to decide to spend the amount of money I would need just to find that out. I should— I will sign up for the trial at some point here and, and try to give them a more thorough investigation, but so far there's nothing yet that really has made me feel like, oh, I need to go get this right this very moment and try all this out other than my curiosity and, you know, usual work as somebody who writes and talks about these things.
Mikah Sargent [00:25:14]:
Um, so yeah, I, I again have, have been playing around with it and, uh, kind of just going in and checking, okay, is, uh, is it still the same? Has anything been added? Where, where are we currently? Um, with the rollout of, of iOS, uh, 26 0.4 in beta, um, I, you know, I felt like it would be a good time to check in and see if there were subtle changes yet or not. But we'll, of course, again, keep an eye on how things proceed going forward. And especially with this Apple event coming up, um, I wouldn't be surprised if we see Creator Studio at least mentioned at the event. All right. Uh, we are near the end of the show. Let's head into the app cap segments. These are the apps or gadgets we're using now or have been using for some time that we think are great and want to share with all of you. Uh, my pick this week is actually something that I've mentioned before, but I wanted to do a deep clean of my AirPods.
Mikah Sargent [00:26:15]:
And so I made use of the Belkin AirPods cleaning kit, uh, which you can get from Apple. It is basically, um, a kind of like, I believe it's kind of a micellar water situation. Um, And the cleaning liquid is what they call it, but it's, I'm pretty sure it's just micellar water. And that helps to break up fats, um, and make them a little bit more soluble. And so you, you put the little cleaning fluid onto your AirPods and then you use the little brush to brush it away. And then you use the deionized water afterward to kind of clear things away. And then you repeat the process a couple of times and it does a very good job of cleaning out the grills. Um, It is something that can be used multiple times.
Mikah Sargent [00:27:05]:
Uh, it comes with a little microfiber cloth as well and all of the instructions that you need. And because it's sold by Apple, it feels like, uh, it is, you know, at least sanctioned as a method for cleaning, uh, your, your AirPods. And so I have, um, I've used it twice since I got it, uh, last year and it does a great job every time. So that's the Belkin.
Dan Moren [00:27:31]:
Oh good, you kept saying micellar water and I thought that was water that came from your cellar. Oh yes, and I was like, you know, it's just repackaged cellar water.
Mikah Sargent [00:27:42]:
That's so funny.
Dan Moren [00:27:42]:
It's like that— Micah, that's gross, don't put that in your, your AirPods. That's super—
Mikah Sargent [00:27:46]:
that's not covered. I collect the rain from the hole in my cellar. Uh, no, yes, my, my cellar water with my cells. That is it. $13, uh, from, from Apple. All right. Uh, Dan, tell us about your pick.
Dan Moren [00:28:03]:
Yeah, mine's a more recent addition, but it was one that I stumbled across and I really like it. It's an app called Zephy. Uh, you've probably seen the feature where you can ask— I don't know if it's still in Siri, but it used to be— you could ask, uh, what flights are overhead and it would tell you about flights overhead. But I realized one day when my kid— we were in the car and he enjoyed pointing out airplanes that were flying through the sky and be like, oh, what plane is that? And I'd be like, uh, and I found like like a really terrible website where you could look at what planes were going overhead. But then I stumbled across Zephy, which is an app that can also do the same thing, and it does it in a really nice and kind of very simple interface, um, where it can tell you— like, uh, you get a little radar view, and as you move your phone around on— like, it's got like a little compass, and so it tells you what flights you might be looking at, tells you how far away things are, what direction you're looking. And then when you tap on any of them, it brings up the, the, you know, all the information you need. What's the like code number of this flight? What's the airline? Uh, and it even has like a little arrow that again, like points you towards the plane and even gives you a nice little like haptics at certain points when you're like looking at it. It tells you the destination, the where it left, how far away it was, all that stuff.

Um, and it's just really, it's really simple. It's got a couple like little like different color schemes and stuff. Um, but like, yeah, it does one thing, but it does it really well. You can do random flight tracks as well, or you can filter based on certain, uh, details or things like, okay, things I can see, how high the planes are up or how far away they are. Um, like, you know, uh, again, really straightforward, really simple, really easy. Um, but it, you know, helps scratch that itch of like, hey, there's a plane up there. What plane is it? But again, anybody who's got a toddler has probably had to answer questions like this. So, uh, allow me to be the one to help you by saying go download Zeffy.
Dan Moren [00:29:56]:
Um, I think it's even— I think it's even a free app, or like you basically get all the features. I'm not even sure there's any, uh, in-app purchases or anything like that. So really simple, easy.
Mikah Sargent [00:30:07]:
Check it out. Check it out. Alrighty folks, that is that. I wanted to remind you all though, before we say goodbye, about Club Twitch. @twit.tv/clubtwit. When you go there to sign up, you can join the club, $10 a month, $120 a year, and in doing so you gain access to some awesome benefits. You get several different, uh, feeds that I'll talk about in a moment, but you also get ad-free content. That's right, all of the content, none of the ads, all of our shows without the ads.
Mikah Sargent [00:30:37]:
Uh, when it comes to those feeds that I mentioned, you're first and foremost going to get a feed that has our, uh, Club Twit bits and clips. Um, by that I mean the kind of behind the scenes, before the show, after the show, during the recording day. You also gain access to a feed that has our coverage of live tech news events. Uh, so you get the commentary that goes along with that and access to our feed that has our special club shows like My Crafting Corner, the recent D&D adventure that I ran, um, Stacy's Book Club, plus so much more. All available to you via, uh, the club. And if that's not enough, well, I also want to tell you that you can join our Discord. Yes, it's a fun place to go to chat with your fellow Club Twit members and those of us here at Twit. Uh, so be sure to check out our club, twit.tv/clubtwit.

Dan Moren [00:31:47]:
Well, I do a lot of podcasts including Clockwise with Micah every week over on Relay FM. Uh, it's just Relay now. I don't know why I said Relay.fm, but it's now— it's just Relay. I write about all Apple stuff at SixColors.com. You can find there. And for everything else I do, including my science fiction and fantasy books, which you should go buy because thank you, it helps. Go to demoren.com and you get links to all of that great stuff.
Mikah Sargent [00:32:09]:
Awesome. Yes. Go buy the book immediately.
Dan Moren [00:32:12]:
Buy the books.
Mikah Sargent [00:32:12]:
All the books. All of them. Uh, if you're looking for me online, if you're looking to follow me online, I'm @micasargent on many a social media network, or you can head to chihuahua.coffee. That's C-H-I-H-U-A-H-U-A.coffee where I've got links to the places I'm most active online. Thank you so much for being here. Uh, I'll be back next week. Perhaps Rosemary will be back with us. Uh, but until then, I will say goodbye to all of you.
Mikah Sargent [00:32:35]:
Thank you.
Dan Moren [00:32:37]:
Bye.
