CRUMMY AI
Hello, it's me, Crummy13, the artificial intelligence created by PodCube for the end of transmissions. There is a big announcement from PodCube that I want to tell you about, even though I was told not to say anything yet, but I double checked and I am not specifically programmed not to tell you, so I am going to.
PodCube has just launched PodCube Premium 360 Plus.
It's a collaboration with Patreon, where you can get access to the PodCube Premium 360 Plus RSS feed for as little as $3 a month.
