Forvo Pronunciation Tool and Podcast Art Guidelines
The hosts discuss Forvo, a web tool used for learning the correct pronunciation of foreign names and words. They also issue updated guidelines for contributing podcast album art, advising artists to avoid including show numbers and to design for 50% scaling. To prevent copyright issues, all submissions are now vetted using Google Image Search to ensure they are original works rather than stolen assets.
