Hey i read Jeff's thing and the podcast does show up on itunes. it does not show up in any podcast RSS grabber that i can think of, doggcatcher, google listen, beyond pod. Other than those three has anyone had luck with another podcast grabbers (for android)? OR in the alternative, is there a direct link to the xml that i can just force-feed in?

Thank you.

Yeah I had the same problem with iTunes. Manually updated the RSS feed and the problem seems fixed for the time being. Just did this in iTunes a few minutes ago.

- Go to File

-Select Subscribe to Podcast

-Specify "www.giantbomb.com/podcast-xml/giant-bombcast" in the URL text area

-Click OK

I guess the RSS was changed and then never updated. -sigh-

Bombcast feed was not working for me in BeyondPod here is what i did:

1. Edited feed address to be the new one "http://www.giantbomb.com/podcast-xml/giant-bombcast" - Still no worky

2. In edit feed select "Sync with Google Reader" - Syncing now but for some reason 2012 GOTY stuff was on top

3. Increased number of items in "Get the last ___ items" setting to 999

4. Under advanced settings set "Feed Item Sort Order" to "Newest on Top", and "Sort Local Episodes By" to "Latest"

5. Update, enjoy.

Hope this is helpful with to anyone having the same Bombcast BeyondPod woes I was having.
