I used the download link, then played the .mp3 with mplayer. Worked OK.
Thanks for testing! I know the sound quality was bad, but I just recorded using my computer's mike. Regular podcasts will be better.
It works. Sounds good on my computer.
This post totally breaks Google Reader for some reason. I'm not sure why. I've had Streets.mn in my feed for months and once this post appeared it stopped working. If I unsubscribe from streets.mn it works, but if I re-subscribe it breaks again. FYI. I don't know if this happened to other readers as well.
Thanks for bringing this up. I noticed the Reader problems as well. My guess is it has something to do with the audio player embedded in the post. I'll remove that and see if it helps.
