The audio quality seems a little iffy on this podcast. It’s like the mic is going bad a little. :-\

The problem was with the Skype connection. Chris kept breaking up and he did well to carry on. I had editied quite a lot of the bad stuff out, in fact by the end of the interview there was a 7 second delay on the line that I had to edit out.

Ian, I didn’t even get Show #16.. Did you change the URL to the podcast? I haven’t recieved any new shows through iTunes since #15..
July 27th, 2005 at 5:46 am
No change in the URL, not sure why you didn’t get it. I have checked the RSS feed any 17 is in then. Have any other iTunes users had this problem?
July 30th, 2005 at 4:21 pm
I just noticed I got #15 and #18, but now I’m getting a 30 second notice stating that the show as moved to the Podcast Network. Talk about confusing….

I found the problem. Somehow iTunes was using the old feed for the show up until the last few episodes. Not sure how that could happen. As far as I knew until now I was on the new feed, but aparently not. So Ian, you may want to make sure your listeners are aware that if they subscribed through iTunes, they may in fact have actually subscribed to the old feed.

I don’t know why itunes is using a 6 month old Feed and not the correct one
I will talk about it on next weeks show
