Best Show Podcast help needed
« on: August 05, 2006, 01:10:36 PM »
Just returned from a lengthy trip and was looking forward to finding some podcasts on my itunes so i can catch up...No new ones are there, and I guess the way Itunes works, they haven't been saved.

Maybe, if an old  archive show from 5/21/02 was the last one put up, then itunes only makes the most recent 'cast available (if this was common knowledge, then apologies for my slowness)

So, is there any way I can download the mp3s of the shows that aired in July?  I thought at one time, the kind fellow who does the podcast had a link to a site with an old archive show, and there were recent podcasts available for the download there, as well.

If that is the case, I'd so appreciate a link.

thanks!!

I keep the archives of the podcasts here:

(url deleted at the request of the RIAA....)


If you're really desperate, you can often download the latest podcast from here before it goes up on the FMU feed.

Funny you should mention this, because before I saw your post, I noticed that iTunes is sorting the Best Show podcasts in alphabetical order (instead of "Date Released"), so every time a "Best Of" podcast gets posted to the feed, it shows up at the *bottom* of the list of podcasts, which makes you think that a new one hasn't been posted (and in my case, iTunes won't even download it, because I have it set to only download the most "recent" podcasts).

I did some checkin' around, and it turns out it's a bug in the FMU podcasting robot.
