0ITunes/RSS Feed Problems Resolved
The problems with the shows showing up on ITunes and the RSS Feed issue seem to have been resolved. Not really sure what happened there, but the RSS feed just crapped out on us. In turn to fix this, we had to pretty much start over with a new feed. If you subscribe to us on ITunes, Zune, or by RSS, you will need to resubscribe to the new feed. You can find us in ITunes by a simple search or by clicking the ITunes button on the left side, and we should update in Zune as well. If you subscribe by RSS, please add our new RSS feed: http://feeds2.feedburner.com/theescapeshow/Ujtb
. We apologize for the inconvenience but this seemed to be the only way to fix the issue.
ITunes/RSS Issues
We’ve received word from a fan of the show that something seems to be awry with our ITunes and RSS feeds. We were unaware of the problem and are looking into this now for a fix. Please download the shows manually through our website here, and we will notify our RSS/ITunes subscribers when this problem is solved.
