Hard to describe this issue but I'll try. Basically I think there is a bug with Podio here. Business partner and I both update our event app (id: 2437976), but for some reason we're both getting really weird time conflicts (I'm attaching an image so you can see a little of what I mean). Both him and I are seeing conflicting times, I realized his timezone was different then mine and had him change and after editing each item then it seemed to fixed it. Wanted to make you aware in case there is more to this issue then that, and also maybe this can be fixed cause I don't think that should effect it considering I work with people all around the world.

  An item has a title stored that is generated from the first field that is filled out. The title is updated whenever the item is edited.

  In your case, the first field is a date field, and since you are in different time zones the date and time appears differently for each of you. The date and time is correct (I assume) below the gray bar to right of the word "Date", but incorrect for one of you (depending on who last edited the item) in the larger title text first in the screenshot.

  You will only encounter this problem when you work across timezones and have a date field as the first field in your app. We will see what we can do about fixing it. Thanks for reporting this.

  Is there any more information regarding fixing this? Even just adding a little drop box so we know what time zone the original poster was using instead of autocorrecting it the timezone I am viewing the entry in?
