Worst day ever

On Sunday, we had a service outage. Jon and Justin talk about
what happened:


TLS / SSL day of horror

Sunday morning Justin started getting messages from a few
Android users that they couldn’t download episodes.

Then, the afternoon hits, and we started getting a flood of
tweets, DMs, text messages, and support requests.

We talk about how we fixed it, and what we'd like to change
for next time.


Also: how we're earning 29% of our SaaS
revenue. (A channel we didn't expect)
