Two Episodes Are The Same

Nov 12, 2005 1:13AM PST

I guess people have noticed that the 11-11 and 11-10 episodes are the same file in the RSS enclosure.

Is it possible to get the 11-11 podcast anywhere? Or does it just not exist?

I downloaded it earlier directly from the website.

For me, when this happens (I use newsgator as my rss agrigator) the link is wrong, but there is another link in the title of the post that is right. It has happened a couple times with other podcasts as well.

That link worked

The same thing happened to me too. I got two 11/10 podcasts. Funny thing though, each file was different sizes, ~25 and ~19MB. I use Ipodder on XP, BTW.

The link in the previous post gave me the correct 11/11 podcast.

it keeps timing out

The link in the previous message starts to download, but I can't get it to finish before it seems to time out and just sort of sit there, not downloading anymore.

I use iPodder, too, BTW. Very convenient and wonderful program, works well with non-iPod-mp3 players.

Just get it from itunes

Actually what I had to do was just get it from itunes, even though I normally use iPodder. Thanks anyway!

iTunes shows two different show titles for 11/10 and 11/11. However, if you play them, they are the same show, and now I'm so confused I'm not even sure which one. Tom mentions that Molly sounds "tinny" and she says she's at an expo for portable digital media, sounds cool. I'm thinking it must have been Thursday because they said how she could probably call in for the next day's podcast.

I guess I'm giving up, I've spent way to much time trying to get Friday's show, but if someone knows why and how to get it, a real link that really works, unlike the one in the other part of this thread that seems to keep timing out, I'd really appreciate a post pointing me there. Attention from someone from cNet about this would also be great, they don't seem to have visited this thread. Thanks!
