Hey Agents, if you’ve not listened yet, you can hear the latest episode here - open.spotify.com/episode/3LQ2...

Also, happy Valentine’s Day Agents! If I was not in my third week of training for a new job and thus mentally exhausted, I’d have prepared a look back over Valentine’s Day in Ingress. Maybe next year.

Podcast recorded for tomorrow! It has some super secret exclusive news on that I was allowed to share! So hope you listen, or at least follow the link from the show notes. 👀 Drops in at 7:30am UK time tomorrow.

2xAP IS BACK AT IFS! It is also 3xAP for March meaning lots of AP with an APEX. Will it hit L16 with it?

This is where working a new job around Gen Z and thinking about Ingress has got me. I’m working on a “67” shirt design at 9pm.

We have details for the Lunar New Year event! The badge doesn’t look as good as previous years unfortunately. It looks like Ponyta on his way to the glue factory. What happened to the nice design for previous years @ingress.com? ingress.com/news/2026-ye...

I know this one is basic, but my wife the other day said “…he will have a power bank on him.” to which I said “No. I have two!” pulling both from my pocket. I am sure many Agents also have more than one power bank on them, ready for @ingress.com so hence - shirt! www.teepublic.com/t-shirt/8754...

The Ingress team remembered the Bluesky login! 🎉

The latest episode is now up! open.spotify.com/episode/52sl... A little later due to me being abso-fucking-lutely knackered on Saturday. It’s a longer episode too at 45 minutes!

Today’s podcast is in progress. However as I mentioned the TeePublic store, I should also say they are doing a 30% off all socks (get some from another store too!) with the below code. Separate post for easier copying.

Hello Agents! I’ve been going a bit mad on the TeePublic store this weekend. I’ve added some designs I thought were funny or that I would want to own, so hope it also resonates with you all too. The prices below are for t-shirts but you can get them as mugs or hats which are cheaper!

Today has wiped me out Agents, so I’ll be recording tomorrow instead of tonight. Episode should still be out on 8th February, just a little later than usual!

Looks like @ingress.com keeps forgetting to post to BlueSky but we have details for the Valentine’s Day event! ingress.com/news/2026-va...

Hey Agents, I don’t really bang on about the TeePublic store as much as I probably should? Anyways, I saw a shirt like this for another activity and gave it a whirl designing something for Ingress on Canva. As it’s a new design it’s £14 instead of £21! www.teepublic.com/t-shirt/8745...

So much news and things going on for @ingress.com and @nianticspatial.bsky.social since I last recorded and there’s still Valentine’s Day and Lunar New Year event details to drop yet. 45 minute episode maybe?

I posted up on the Ingress subreddit but really think they need to steal from Jurassic World Alive when @ingress.com launches it’s CMU web store. www.reddit.com/r/Ingress/s/...

Following on from the NL-1331 vans appearing, we now have details for the Shard event linked to it. ingress.com/news/2026-q1...

The latest episode is now out! I was away this weekend so it covers a funny thing that happened in Antartica instead. open.spotify.com/episode/5GEQ... So much news to cover next week!

Hey Agents! The Bounty Pass is now available with a free one able to be claimed due to the previous downtime. Will you be boosting your Bounties? ingress.com/news/2026-bo...

Hey Agents, I’m awake two hours before I need to start getting ready for work so…here’s some rambling thoughts on a “Mega Anomaly” idea that I mentioned in some comments on r/Ingress This is mostly from having experienced both @ingress.com’s live events and Pokémon GO’s. Here we go.

@nintendolife.com www.nintendo.co.jp/netinfo/en_U...

Nearly three weeks since the Ingress team have posted on Bluesky? Have you folks forgotten the password or do you need a Community Manager in EMEA? *submits application*

The @ingress.com team have revealed the rules for the +Gamma Anomalies! ingress.com/news/2026-pl... New things: +Gamma Onsite Medal. Battle Beacon deployment timing. Anomaly Bounties. Anomaly Uniques. #Ingress #PlusGamma I’ll cover it all on the February 8th episode!

More NL-1331 van Portals have appeared! Open @ingress.com and use the Drone’s Eye View to scout your area!

@ingress.com Can you also post updates about the NL vans here too? I don’t want to check Twitter at all.

Morning Agents! This weeks episode goes over the NL-1331 event that has kicked off including all three Campaigns, as well as looking ahead to February’s events and looking at what Niantic Spatial say about Accuracy on Recon/OPR. open.spotify.com/episode/0bBO...

Hey Agents! As mentioned, Episode 139 is all ready to go for 7:30am tomorrow. Then Episode 140 is all done and ready for 7:30am on 1st February. For this one, I’m “out of office” that weekend so am recapping something strange that happened in Antarctica before I started the podcast.

If you didn’t get one yet, the Ingress team posted that this is only the first wave, so more vans to come. If you have a NL-1331 Portal nearby, you’ll also get a localised Campaign!

The NL-1331 Virtual Van tour in @ingress.com has started! Did you get a Van Portal? Will you be picking up the premium campaign?

Anyways, outside of getting the van to turn up, I’ll be recording two episodes this week as I will be taking off 1st February. It’ll be my first week being back at a job since November, as well as my first time back in an office full time since 2017.

It’s not clear what the threshold is for a “community” for @ingress.com’s NL-1331 event tomorrow but I hope someone at the team selects this trio to get the van there! www.reddit.com/r/Ingress/s/... 👀

A mental health reminder on this fake day.

Episode 138 is now also out! podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/i... Going through the recently detailed NL-1331 event and the issues with the latest @ingress.com app update!

Hey Agents! I don’t share my TeePublic store often but the whole site is 40% off right now! www.teepublic.com/user/ingress... So if you want a shirt, socks or cushion with Ingress Insights stuff on, which helps support the podcast check the link out. You can also get free shipping with (cont)

Some personal news. In November I mentioned I was made redundant from a job I’d had for 10+ years. All things being well, I should start a new one next Monday! I am still going to be checking @nianticspatial.bsky.social’s careers page for anything suitable though.

@brianrose.bsky.social Will we see an entry from the @ingress.com team on this? Obviously no rigging it 😆 but would be fun to see the team’s Portal selection. ingress.com/news/2026-vi...

@ingress.com How many Agents counts as a “community” for this event? ingress.com/news/2026-vi...

My community is pretty much just…me? ingress.com/news/2026-vi... and no Van tick? Odd choice.

Alongside this, as expected, any Agents that are suspended are unable to access Recon. Hopefully the @ingress.com team are able to reverse any false positives in this instance.

Some Agents are reporting seeing warnings/suspensions in @ingress.com Speculation is over VPNs, third party tools and/or an error from @nianticspatial.bsky.social www.reddit.com/r/Ingress/s/...

I’ve refreshed the pinned post here on Bluesky with some aims and goals for 2026 for the show. The second one is likely to happen by Q2, so you can expect a few more video podcasts then too. The first one is a “stretch goal” - but happy to wait for the invite The third one…who knows?

My proposal for the new badges for +Gamma @ingress.com Capitalise on the trend of cloaks from @thetraitors.bsky.social (you folks in America and other locations watch too right?)

Waiting on more details about the Virtual NL New Year Tour 2026 and how I summon NL-1331 to my side of the field. It’ll spawn at my couch Portal right @ingress.com ?

The tale of how I started playing @ingress.com I guess it stuck long after as I am nearly L16 for the third time

Incident Report about the XM Network Synchronization Failure on Dec 28, 2025 from the NIA Director of Operations.

Hello all! I’ll be recording the first episode of 2026 in a few hours and have a rough idea of what I’ll discuss. • Happy new year • Ingress’ shared stats for 2025 • App downtime and the compensation • Campaigns that are ongoing • Getting back to AP for dailies

I gave myself a few goals with this podcast. One was to have more episodes than Prime Tips, which this podcast wouldn’t exist without as I listened to it a lot. Prime Tips has 103, and Ingress Insights has hit 135 (numbered, there’s 177 episodes) so I feel that one is ticked off.
