So, IDK this is my first post and hopefully this is ok and uhhh YEAH HI GUYS

Anyways, general opinion towards Crackovia is overwhelming love, yes? While farting around on their website (They also have amusing news tidbits), I discovered that not only can you watch episodes (full episodes, totally free, it's great, trust me)-- you can also download Crackovia ringtones and GET A PODCAST OF THE EPISODES

All free.

Really, it's like God's gift to all of us.

So. Yeah people probably knew all this already but didn't see a post so I figured WHY THE HELL NOT.

Ringtones

CRACKOTONS

They only have a limited selection, but they've got Pep going ZIGA ZAGA and Puyi going KEITE..KEITE...KEITEEE plus their theme, so it's all good.

For the Cool Kids with teh Smart Phonez
If you've got an iPhone/Android/crackberry/something vaguely sentient, you can just right click + save and then load it up to your device of impending roboty doom of choice (obviously when you've got it synced to your computer). Or at least for BBs you can do that. Not entirely sure about the rest of the available options. Mostly because I don't have all the rest, if someone could get back to me on how that stuff works, that would be amazing.

For the Normal Folks with Normal Phones
You can still right click and save. I have no idea what the actual instructions are, but you can easily use a site like phonezoo.com to send the tone to yourself. Totz free, you just pay any fees you'd normally pay to get stuff sent to your phone.

PODCAST

For Those Who Have Sold Their Souls to ~~Steve Jobs~~Apple (and iTunes users who still for the most part have their souls)

WEAH UND VOILA

I do believe this is all you need to go to iTunes and get this all figured out. I don't own an iPod/iPhone/iPad so I honestly can't help you from here. But

arbeloa just uses iTunes and I do believe she got it all figured out.

For Everyone Else

CLICK HERE BBS

If I'm right, you can right click and save to download these. If you have a BB or a smartphone device with a Podcast app, you can download said app and then use the address to add Crackovia to your podcast subscriptions. I can only really detail this for BlackBerries though--

1 - First you need a podcast app. There's a free Podcasts for BlackBerry app you can download.
2 - After you get it installed and everything, hit the little RIM logo button next to your trackpad/trackball and hit "Add Podcast Channel"
3 - Type in "http://www.tv3.cat/3alacarta/podcast/xml/crackovia.xml" and hit NEXT, this should add Crackovia to your subscriptions
4 - Within a few minutes, you should be able to browse through the episodes and download them to your phone as you please

Of course, you're going to need room for all this.

Hopefully, these steps apply to other podcast enabled devices as well. But. Yeah. I seriously jizzed my pants this morning when I woke up and saw a notification telling me there was a new ep of Crackovia to be downloaded. Portable Crackovia for long bus rides? Excellence.

I realize most of this is really straightforward but IT NEVER HURTS TO BE PREPARED JUST IN CASE. Also this is way longer than I thought it would be.

So. Yeah. Sorry for the lack of fancy formatting.

Just to make this worthwhile for everyone--
