That's been happening a lot with a bunch of podcasts and iTunes. The only thing you can do is redownload and hope for the best.

Actually, it looks like it is only 14:50. I'll listen to it before I say it's an incomplete file.


"We just suck. We said that we would send glitter to the..."

And that's the end.

EDIT: The file is 43.6MB on Libsyn, so it's definitely iTunes.

SECOND EDIT: I had to unsubscribe and resubscribe on iTunes and then the file came down fine. It's better for KatG anyway, since the rankings on iTunes go by the number of new subscribers in the last 24 hours.

My first download was 45 minutes, which i checked cos 45 mins is short for KATG and of course it was broken, fucking iTunes. Actually I just had a thought, the file is being uploaded, therefore it's not complete if you jump on early, so you that were gettin 14:50 were probably getting all that was uploaded. Possibly? ;]) OK good thing I can edit, that's now 46 minutes off iTunes.....

I don't think it's iTunes, I download mine off Libsyn and it came in at 29:11.

No, the file doesn't show up on Libsyn, or the RSS feed, until Keith has uploaded the whole thing. I've tested that on past shows when Keith posted the episode number here, then I'd try to download it, then try again 3 or 4 seconds later and the whole file was there.

I'm guessing it's what I said, cos I heard Adam Curry say it once, when I thought he was interesting and not a douche. On a brighter note while listening to the 46 min partial 208 it gave teh internets enough time to get 208 complete online and now I have my yummy complete 208. OK said 208 too many times ;]) It would also help if my brain wasn't melting from this cold and I said 218 rather than 208, said=typed of course... Colds suck....

That's just messed up. First try I got the full thing from Libsyn, and it took two tries to get it through iTunes.

I know the Daily Breakfast was having the same problem, and FR doesn't use Libsyn (as far as I know). I think AC also mentioned it on his show, and he blamed it on iTunes.

Who knows.
