Maybe I am... 🔮 Catching up with the board meeting and Fredericksburg indeed is in both the list https://radar.rss.io/#30.2741,-98.8718,8 and the globe https://radar.rss.io/#30.2741,-98.8718,8,globe
But I did send a strongly worded email to our product team after @npub1fmx…wp74 could not easily find the location UI at the channel level 🤣 Heads will roll 😉

James, I shipped your ideas for radar.rss.io : "made in" vs "about" is now in the Globe view, both as a filter and as dot colors. Podcast cards also do OSM lookups now when you click on them, so you can see what a place actually is.
And 🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁 I added a Radio Garden-inspired random play: tap once and the globe flies you to a random show and plays its latest episode. Keep tapping, keep hopping. Been playing with it for 30 minutes straight... almost mesmerizing!

I also added a custom domain so it's nicer: https://atlas.rss.io
e.g. No Agenda: https://atlas.rss.io/#41504

Thanks @npub1rcn…dw4h for releasing the open datasets from PodcastIndex: so much fun stuff you can build with them! e.g. I prototyped a Podroll Atlas, running entirely in your browser:

Wishlist: if the recommendations dataset shipped the full array of sourceFeed IDs and URLs the graph would get a lot richer with clusters, fan-in, communities.
