About

Pocket Podcasts started as a student project at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, for Ralph Johnson's software engineering course.

By the end of the course, the team achieved its main goal: getting a good grade. However, the vision of a robust podcast client, which caters to mobile device owners, had not yet been realized.

Today, one student, Wes Henderson, carries on with development, making the Pocket Podcasts vision a reality.
