Post subject:  Strong Bad Email podcast is down?

Is anyone else having trouble with the Sbemail podcast? For some reason, iTunes refuses to connect to it. I have all of them up to Rated, but now it won't update. The little exclamation mark pops up beside the podcast and says "'Strong Bad Email' does not seem to be a valid Podcast URL. Please check that you have entered the correct URL and try again."

I even tried re-subscribing by entering the URL of the XML feed, but it still won't work. I know I can manually download them from the site, but they don't register as podcasts that way.

At least 5 knowledge base members (including me :( ) have trouble downloading the podcast as well. Apparently TBC messed up the address for the RSS feed.

It's not the address... there's a space before the <?xml ?> tag at the top of the RSS feed, and the XML spec says that that tag has to be the very first thing at the start of the file, no exceptions. You'll notice you get an error message if you go to the feed directly in Firefox (and presumably in other good browsers, too).

So, you'll just have to download this one manually, and hope that TBC fix that space next week.

Speaking of the podcast being down... (related, but not the same thing... not exactly big enough to make a whole thread out of)

The podcast hasn't been updated since sbemail 200... I'm pretty disappointed, since I watch this stuff on my iPod a lot. I really hope it isn't completely done.

That lengthy break wouldn't have annoyed me if podstar.homestarrunner.com actually got hiding's name right during that break.
