OEmbed is nice. It’s too bad more sites don’t use it. I right now have to do some nasty regex action and even in some cases use Mechanize (ex: getting past disclaimer pages [xtube lol]) to get video HTML from certain sites. In some cases it can be straightforward since the embed code can be derived from the URL but in some cases it requires a Proc instead of a regex to traverse the site.
Other than that, nice podcast, keep doing, etc.
I think the link for faster from xml should be http://agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/faster_from_xml
Great stuff chaps, keep it up.
Don’t forget the update to the update of Ruby’s vulnerabilities:

Thanks for mentioning my late work!
One thing to add: Fabio Akita from www.akitaonrails.com has forked the demo app and translated it to Portuguese. If anyone else forks the project and translates it into their own language I’m happy to add it to the translations list in my blog post. Just drop me a line in the comments.
