In an effort to find out how many listeners there are to the diabeticfeed podcast, we have used what is called a “redirect” in web speak to atempt to get a more acurate count. The unfortunate side effect of this is that it opened up a known bug (well, we know now at least) in the iTunes software which permanently redirected the podcast feed location to another server.
Unfortunately, there is no workaround to fix this issue available to diabeticfeed. If you use iTunes and have noticed that new episodes are up on the website that are not being downloaded by iTunes, we suggest that you “clear” diabeticfeed then resubscribe in iTunes.
Thank you,
-John
