After last night’s upload of episode 6, a string of technical difficulties occurred both server-side and of the pebkac nature. This afternoon, it was discovered that the current episode’s upload was interrupted and only a partial upload occurred. Thus, if you downloaded episode 6 at any time on April 13th, you likely received the partial file. Take a look at the length of the episode: if it comes in at around 1:07:00, it is the partial episode. The actual episode clocks in at 1:27:30.
As of 7pm on Tuesday, April 13th, the corrected file has been uploaded and should be working properly. If you downloaded the file directly from Geekerific, from Podcast Alley, or from another feed aggregator, you’ll have to delete the partial file and re-download it. If you downloaded it iTunes, you’ll have to follow these steps to completely resolve the issue:
1. Delete the erroneous file from your iPod/MP3 player.
2. In iTunes, right-click on Episode 6 in your podcast list and select ‘Delete’, then follow the steps to ‘Move to Recycle Bin’.
3. In iTunes, right-click on the main “After The Fact Podcast” title in your podcast list and select “View All Available Episodes”. This should bring up episode 6 again with a “Get” button.
4. Select the “Get” button to download the new file.
5. Re-sync your iPod.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this has caused, and hopefully we won’t run into any more technical issues anytime soon.
