Where are the new episodes?

Hey there!

I just wanted to quickly explain why this podcast stopped updating.

This is an unoffical podcast feed that relies on BBC Sounds and is hosted outside the UK. Back in July, the BBC cut off international users from Sounds. You can read about that here. This feed wasn't affected because the block was pretty soft. But on Monday, they unexpectedly rolled out hard blocks and changed the metadata structure, which broke the script that runs the feed. I’ve fixed the metadata issue, but the VPNs and proxies are still a bit unreliable. I’m working on making the script more robust, and I expect it will take a few more days to be production ready.

Sorry for the inconvenience. It's not ideal. I listen to these podcasts myself, so I have every motivation to get them back up as fast as possible!

I just wanted to let you know that the project isn’t dead!

If you have any questions feel free to email me at bbcsoundsrss@gmail.com.

I'll only put updates like this one in this podcast feed if they are critical. For more frequent updates on the status of things, visit bbcsoundsrss.media.

Note: The audio file for this episode is just a placeholder. It's silent.
