Title: Issue with the podcast
Post by: amelia76 on November 12, 2010, 09:10:29 AM
Does anyone know who I need to email about the podcast?  Basically the podcast is missing the first 24 minutes of the show (not counting the songs of course).   Just not sure who to contact.

thanks!

The podcasts clip the music from the show for copyright reasons, I believe.

Try getting the podcast from WFMU's site.

I had the same issue accessing it through iTunes.  It's not just the music clipped out, the show literally starts in  the middle of one of Tom's sentences.  It made me panicky.

For a second, I thought they brought back the pre-show GOMP highlight. 

I don't know who to contact about this, but I'm sure somebody else does and has.  That was a weird sentence.

Has someone told Mel? Maybe he can resend it to Itunes.

edit: I just sent him a note - maybe he already knows but I thought I'd be SUPER DUPER helpful and tell him too, just in case.

From Mel on the twittah:

Apologies to @Scharpling and @TBSOWFMU podcast subscribers! Something went goofy with this morning's podcast upload. I'll upload a fix today

I just tried to upload the new version, it still has the most current one at 2:23:28.  Was anyone else able to get the second upload?
