Is there a way to get the pod casts via ftp or email subscription. I am behind a firewall that blocks the site itself. Thanks in advance.

If you can get to Google, you can subscribe through Google Reader: you'll just have to get someone to pass you the appropriate URL. With any luck, you'll get your data passed through to you by Google.

One strangeness I encountered was that the "mini-player" which showed up played back the latest episode at double-speed Smiley Not quite certain how to get around that one, which happens in both IE7 and FF2 Sad If that happens to you, you're probably out of luck since the alternative is to save the MP3...which you already said you couldn't do Huh

I am behind a similar firewall. I use the Coral Cache ( http://www.coralcdn.org/ ) to get around this. You can do this by copying the "direct download" link, going to the end of the domain name (libsyn.com) and tacking on a ".nyud.net:8080".  For instance, right now Episode 004 is the current one with an URL of: http://media.libsyn.com/media/butcherblock/BB004_-_Furious_Nerds_and_Prime_C.mp3
All you have to do is change the URL to:
http://media.libsyn.com.nyud.net:8080/media/butcherblock/BB004_-_Furious_Nerds_and_Prime_C.mp3

Another advantage is that once you do this, if libsyn goes down, you still have access to the cached version of the file.

I've had no time, and I think Pris has been similarly swamped. It's not dead. It's, um, pining. For the fjords. Or maybe just taking a nap.
