I searched for "podcast" and found ZERO gens that play podcasts, let alone search 925 of them! I built a cool new radio gen, and queried the AI Helper about podcasts--No problem! (It was tricky, though.) Now you (and I) can listen to more than 70,000 radio stations streaming live, PLUS more than 925 podcasts! All searchable, saveable, pick-up-where-you-left-off-able. Try it out and let me know what you think, what bugs you might find (rigorously tested, but still), or what you'd like added.
You're welcome!
EDIT: So many haters! Is it my conceit?

Love your work!! I'm not sure I will listen much, but, as a retired software engineer, dang, I'd say: impressive! I've been looking at the code and the link to the Meta Template in The Meta-Template Concept is dead.

Done! Simply had Wade (my personal AI Helper) strip away the non-template content from a gen I created from the template a couple days ago, after I duplicated it (the proper technique, this time!). It's live again, same link, so the old links work again. Here it is, as well:

Pretty basic, but when used correctly (!) it is easier than copying prompts and files and everything I want in a new gen.

Thanks! But, as a retired software engineer (you, not me), I think it only fair to tell you that I am a budding prompt engineer, and I create ALL of my gens without ever touching the code. I use the AI Helper (with a Wade Wilson/Deadpool personality) to do the coding, while I just prompt it to give me what I want. We created the radio/podcast gen in six hours!
The template gen has disappeared--I don't know why, but suspect I messed up when I started the Radio/Podcast gen! I'll see if I can find it, or I'll recreate it.
It means a lot to me that someone with your background 'loves my work'. Believe it or not, I've only been messing around with ai for about a year, as time allowed. Have some basic coding understanding, mostly VBA and Python--enough to understand what is going on with it, but not enough to write entire apps. The best thing about Perchance is that I can express my creativity with ai for free, and the damn thing is very competent!

Don't worry, I'm well aware (from reading prior posts) that you are using AI to create your work. The output you've created thus far (made AI create, duh), tells me that you are very good at specifying and describing a problem in such way that others (or the AI) can create code from (nearly?) scratch. That ability is much more valuable than decades of coding experience based on specs others supply. Let's face it: if you can't properly describe a problem, how will you ever be able to come up with the right solution? And mind you, the world is full of know-it-alls who come up with solutions for the wrong problems. And it costs billions, each year.
So, kudos!
Having said that (of course there's more), one obvious flaw I noticed in the [GEN] PODCASTS app is the use of fixed units (px) in the CSS instead of relative units (rem, em, etc). With responsive design that's a no-go. You will need to do some tweaking there. Some guidance on the subject is too much for this post, but you can DM me should you require some insight. I haven't checked your other apps, but since you are using a template, I guess(!) they all have the same issue...
