Seemed somewhat short. Perhaps it was the absence of Pork. Still a good show of course. 🙂
Interestingly it was actually longer than the last 3 episodes. Of course, with the music we are limited to 60 minutes while on 3RRR.
I’d like to think that it seemed shorter just because you were enjoying it so much.
It seemed short to me too actually. When are you guys going back to podcast only? I miss the longer episodes. Or are you maybe getting a permanent gig?
Next week is the last on RRR for the time being.
Nice to know you miss the longer shows though.
I do prefer the longer shows. In actual fact, the trip to work usually takes 1h 15m Which is precicely the usual time of the podcast.
Ah, thanks for the clarification. Have a good last radio show then. Make sure to get lots of site plugs in to get the radio listeners to get the podcast!
Hi everyone,
Just in case anyone is interested (I suspect it’s only me who is…), the Supernatural downloads from Ten now have an expiration of 3 weeks, rather than 48 hours. They were obviously providing only the the first ep prior to broadcast, as subsequent eps appear only to be available after broadcast.
There are only ads at the start; the reason for the larger download size (about 50MB more than a standard avi) is that it’s WMA format. Also, there were no dramas downloading it this week, except that Ten ask for your full details again – I guess they’ll be tracking who’s just having a sample and who’ following the series via download.
The one big advantage with downloading it from Ten, rather than via torrent, is that you don’t have to share it back – that’s effectively another 300MB to play with.
LOL any time I am asked for details like that I usually type in Eddy McGuire. Good to know they have extended the time limit on Downloads.
Are there any good chances of continuing on RRR after this summer run?
We’ll have to wait and see. Unlikely to be anything before the next program grid in April and then I guess it will depend on whether RRR are happy with us and whether an appropriate 1 hour spot is available.
