@admin Yes; well, the archive file is an archived version of the mp3 file from where it's actually hosted (audio.qoto.org), but the way the hosting works, if you go to it, it tries to download it instead of playing it, by default. I use #PodcastAddict on #Android and occasionally Grover Podcast on #Windows, and it works on there. But it would probably be better to find a host that would stream the file by default instead of trying to download it.

Does the first episode stream for you? The hosting for that file was different than the rest.

@realcaseyrollins The latest eps do have that behavior. The older ones that direct link to archive don't though, I get a regular in-browser player w/ firefox. I don't think that's the issue though since my app can't get any of them. It's probably just not handling the double link structure of the archive urls. I think some archives have a built-in link shortener, you might try that.
Also 'retry trump' goes to the qoto subdomain but says "signature has expired" jsyk.

@admin Thanks for the heads-up. I think I just fixed it.

@realcaseyrollins It does, pops up a download prompt like the others. That is a big honkin' link though lel, I could understand wanting to shorten it.

@admin Haha! Well, it looks like Amazon AWS has a 25 GB free tier, so I might try that, depending on the information they demand of me upon signup.

Not my first choice by a long shot, but it should help.

@admin Actually, if the Retry Trump episode works for you, I bet just using the long URL instead would fix the problems

@admin Okay, I tried replacing all the tinyurl urls with the archive.org urls but I keep getting this error. I think it's why I moved over to tinyurl for it.

@admin Found a new host to back up on Wayback; I put The Alex Episode on it. If this works for you in your app, I'll move the other episodes there as well.

@realcaseyrollins It seems to. There's still something funky about it because it didn't do a loading bar animation while it downloaded, and still says 0B. I clicked on it and it plays though, that's all that really matters. It's a good ep btw, I like a lot of what this Alex guy is saying.

@admin Awesome! I'll migrate everything over then.
