No Podcast For 5/11/2012
posted by Rich @ 7:03 PM
Sorry folks, no show this week. Paul is sicky and can't talk. His recent lobotomy didn't help, either.

See you next week!

If we counted in a base other than Base 10, this wouldn't be episode 180 at all.

Podcast #0179 Glitch. Sorry!!
posted by Rich @ 2:28 PM
Hey folks. Somehow in the final mix of Podcast #0179, a setting got changed on a noise gate, which made for an annoying pop at the beginning of some of the words that Paul spoke at the beginning of phrases. It sounded fine in editing, and I have no idea how it got changed, but what ended up happening, was I uploaded that file to our server without realizing the error.

When it was all done and I sat down to make sure the link was live on our web site, I listened to the first few minutes, and noticed the issue.

I fixed the setting and remixed the episode, and re-uploaded it to the server. So if you got the file with those annoying pops, you can re-download the ep now, to get the fixed file.

I have no idea how iTunes handles this, so hopefully everyone will be getting the fixed file from this point on.

Paul says: In iTunes, if you want to replace a podcast episode with an updated version, you can do it like this: looking at the podcast listing, delete the episode. Tell iTunes to move it to the trash (or recycle bin on Windows). Then control-click (or right-click, if you're on Windows) to bring up the popup menu on the podcast title. You should see a command that says "show all available episodes." This should give you a new "grayed out" entry for the episode with a "Get" button. Just get it again to download the new file.

For the technical nerds, I think that behind the scenes, this shows episodes that are available in the current feed even if the episode's GUID is already marked as downloaded in your local iTunes database. I think this only works in recent versions of iTunes.

Missing Podcast Episodes On iTunes
posted by Rich @ 6:56 PM
Episode 177 was part of the podcast feed for a while, but then disappeared. Our attempts to bring it back have failed. We don't understand why, and we're not sure we WANT to understand why, unless this kind of thing starts happening repeatedly.

Fortunately you can still download the MP3 file itself via the episode link in this blog. But for anyone who catches these podcast episodes in iTunes, or maybe some other pod-catcher application, the missing episode 177 is kind of aggravating, because even if you download the MP3 file and add it to your library, it won't show up in the right place with the other episodes under "podcasts." It will lack the hidden podcast episode ID3 tags and so even if you add it, it will show up in your music library.

So for anyone who would like a copy of episode 177 that _has_ been tagged by iTunes to fit nicely in your iTunes podcast folder with the others, you can find it here.

You should be able to add this to your iTunes library and it should show up in the right place.

We hope this appeases our more obsessive-compulsive listeners and apologize for the inconvenience!

We Have Voice Mail, Again!
posted by Rich @ 10:31 PM
Yes folks, Bloodthirsty Vegetarians now have voice-mail, AGAIN!!!

We had voice-mail back when we were producing regular shows, before, but when the show went away, so did the voice-mail. Well, it's back.

  206-376-0397

Just like before, it's a Seattle area code because that's where the service is, but that shouldn't be a problem considering that most people have free night-time long-distance these days on their cells.

 Give us a call and tell us what's on your mind.  Good or bad... we dare ya!

For our 172nd offering, and our first Podcast in almost two years, we give you a segment that we recorded with Kirsten, from the now defunct Poddy Talk Podcast. She was supposed to edit this into something, but decided to stop podcasting. I found these tracks while I was cleaning not too long ago, and thought I'd edit them into a couple of episodes. Kirsten was cool with it, so here they are:

  • Wine
  • Weapons
  • Wackiness
  • Vin:2000 Tapestry Shiraz, Fat Bastard Shiraz
