  • Excellent information

    I love this podcast! For some reason over the last few weeks it will never download on my podcast app until later in the day—every morning I get an error message saying this podcast isn’t available. Censorship or…?

  • Help! A technical error is interrupting me from listening to my favorite podcast!

    I love this podcast. I listen to it every morning when I begin my day. But it’s recently been “temporarily unavailable,” citing a “technical error.” Can you fix it, please? I’m so sad I can’t catch up on the news while simultaneously enjoying your snarky, but entirely appropriate, comments.
