Title: iTunes feed
Post by: Mark in Helsinki on December 19, 2008, 03:51:41 AM
Howdy!

Is it just me or is the Dec 16 show feed on iTunes a duplicate of the Dec 9 show?

Is there something wrong with my iTunes or with the feed?

Sincerely,
(A Genuine FOT) mark

This is good news, very good news. Not that I couldn't hear the ZG show again.

Whew! Thanks!

That's the reason I haven't replied in a while... I passed out late this morning because I didn't get my Friday morning jab.

I'll be checkin' the iTunes...

whew! thank goodness... i didn't want to say anything after already making the mistake of complaining about a podcast once before (in an email - to TOM!) i will say that tommy tonado was a complete gentleman, and his response not only convinced me to donate to the wfmu marathon, but proved that it's possible to be polite and funny while responding to unsolicited emails from creeps like me who have the nerve to complain about a free podcast.

I had already listened to that one twice last week. When it started up again yesterday after trying to download this week's, I just started listening to it again!

I, too, re-listened to the JH and ZG calls whilst waiting.

I'm a big Hodgman fan, and did the same. Plus I listen at work so I'll often miss some things here and there, so it's always worth it to go back and listen. Also I think the Hodgman episode was the Mr. Sherbet call, which killed me.

Has the 12/23 show been put on Podcast? It doesn't come up on itunes.

Post by: HaroldBlvd on December 27, 2008, 11:16:34 AM
As a matter of fact I did. I run a bar so I'm always working on holidays.

I understand about the holiday schedule but I just wanted to make sure I didn't have to reset my subscription to the podcast.

I can now see the latest podcast in itunes, but it keeps running into an error when I try to download it. Is anyone else having this problem? This is the first show I haven't listened to live in a couple of years, and I'm still behind.  :'(

reset your subscription.  I don't know what that means, but apparently it makes a difference some time.
