We talk about their app, coincidentally called "Pocket Casts," and how they implemented various features like Material, audio, and even how the company made a complicated weather app for a country where it's always sunny.<br /> Oh, and we talked about some of the stuff happening at Google I/O 2019, because that's when we recorded this conversation.<br /> <br /> Subscribe to the <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/blogspot/AndroidDevelopersBackstage" target="_blank">podcast feed</a> or download the <a href="https://storage.googleapis.com/androiddevelopers/android_developers_backstage/ADB%20114%20Pocket%20Casts.mp3" target="_blank">audio file</a> directly.<br /> <br /> <b>Links</b>:<br /> <div> <ul style="text-align: left;"> <li><a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=au.com.shiftyjelly.pocketcasts&amp;hl=en_US"> Pocket Casts on Google Play</a></li> </ul> <b>Philip</b>: <a href="https://twitter.com/geekygecko">@geekygecko</a><br /> <b>Ben</b>: <a href="https://twitter.com/bentrengrove">@bentrengrove</a><br /> <b>Chet</b>: <a href="http://twitter.com/chethaase" target="_blank">@chethaase</a><br /> <b>Romain</b>: <a href="http://twitter.com/romainguy" target="_blank">@romainguy</a><br /> <b>Tor</b>: <a href="https://twitter.com/tornorbye" target="_blank">@tornorbye</a></div> <div style="text-align: center;"><i><br /></i><i><br /></i><br /> <i>Thanks to continued tolerance and support by our audio engineer, Bryan Gordon.</i></div> </div> <img alt="" height="1" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/AndroidDevelopersBackstage/~4/OpJtXjrhIag" width="1" />
