Is anyone else having problems downloading iTunes podcasts, is it broken?

The last 3 podcasts don’t appear in iTunes for some reason. They DO exist, though, as you can see in [http://straightdope.infoble.com/rss.xml](http://straightdope.infoble.com/rss.xml). Hope they’ll straighten it up soon, but at least the podcast wasn’t discontinued as I originally feared…

I’m moving this thread from Comments on Cecil’s Columns to ATMB. I agree it’s pretty much either place, but since there were few responses in CoCC, I thought maybe there’d be better luck in ATMB.

I’ve asked about this, awaiting response.

My iTunes shows no new podcasts after 9-17-2012.

I see the podcast link on the Straight Dope site lists the “two by fours” column now; the last time I checked, earlier in the week, it was two weeks behind.

I will enquire further and see what’s going on.

Still no update to iTunes, but we’ll keep checking.
