Hola amigos! 

Good news!  You can now find Dear Amber as it's own iTunes channel!  If you currently listen to Dear Amber through your ChinesePod feed or here on the site, nothing will change for you, you can continue to listen as before.  However, now people will be able to find Dear Amber separately through iTunes!  Yay! 

Please help us get Dear Amber launched properly:  go to the iTunes site and click "subscribe."  That will help Dear Amber rise on the iTunes podcast charts, so that more people can see and enjoy that show! 

Also, if you're a fan of the show, please write a customer review

While you're subscribing to Dear Amber, you might as well subscribe to SpanishPod, FrenchPod, ItalianPod, ChinesePod, and ChinesePod (for some reason there are two), and help us rise in the charts!  And write us some good reviews!  :)

"Dear Amber" on iTunes: may be great for some guys here - not for me.

I would prefer a better traditional character support, less mistakes in the vocabs, expansions, pdfs (more quality - less quantity!).

But my feeling is: CP isn't listening anymore.

Everyone makes mistakes! Cpod has moved location (physically)! Cpod has moved with technological changes which have made it more accessable to more people in more places in more ways. Cpod has always responded quickly to any technical problems that it has been informed about. Cpod has always been open to suggestions. Dear Amber(babe) is a very informative and entertaining way to learn about Chinese culture even if you are not studying the language (yet).

Quit whinging and appreciate the BEST Chinese Mandarin resource on the net that exists!

Hooray! 

Also, a quick look at the top 100 shows DA debuting at number 40! 

Please keep subscribing!  Write a review if you can... and while you're at it, subscribe to SpanishPod on iTunes as well!  :)

Here's an update: 

DA has climbed to #33 in the Top Education Podcasts chart, and is listed as "new and noteable" on the Education Podcast page. 

DA also shows up in the "New Release" section of the iTunes store HOME PAGE.  Dude, so huge!

Woo hoo, go, Amber, go!  If you haven't yet subscribed, folks, please go click the button!  While you're at it, click "subscribe" on SpanishPod, FrenchPod, and ItalianPod.

(bump!)  Folks, if you get a chance this weekend, please go to iTunes and subscribe to the DA podcast.  It's been floating in the Top 40. 

Also, thanks to the people who have already subscribed and have written reviews! 

Finally, you fans of ItalianPod and FrenchPod should go out there and subscribe to the iTunes feeds for them, as well; then they'll start climbing the charts, and more people will notice them...--jpv

ps.  Hey, why is SpanishPod always ahead of ChinesePod on the charts?  Are you cPoddies going to stand for that?  ;)

Pipsy, you're joking, right?

Amber herself  came all the way to StudioFiesta to plug Dear Amber on SpanishPod's Que pasa (our News and Features channel). 

Enjoy!
