Howdy Everyone –
If you are having issues playing the BPL Podcast from your preferred podcatchers, our apologies! It appears that our podcast hosting service has pushed out a corrupted file to several platforms and has not republished the correct file to those podcatchers. We are working with the hosting provider to resolve this. Right now, the BPL Website and Apple Podcasts both have the podcast without any problems, so we recommend listening on those platforms. Thanks for understanding, and we apologize for the inconvenience!
