Note to iTunes subscribers: We will be updating our iTunes feed as soon as possible, so you may not see this episode appear in your iTunes subscriptions. Do not panic. We are aware of the situation and hope to have it resolved quickly.
The Crystal Ball Run podcast is back and has plenty of ground to cover. Consider this a soft reset for the podcast. With the new publishing platform and layout on the site, it was time to give the podcast a new beginning of sorts. Starting now we will be hosting the podcast right here at Crystal Ball Run, which means no more having to go through a third party to have our podcasts hosted. You may not notice much of a difference, but this means a little bit less of a headache behind the scenes when it comes to the podcast (hopefully). Because we are now hosting the podcast on our own site, some tinkering with the iTunes subscription will need to be done to make sure iTunes subscribers continue getting the podcast delivered properly. We ask that subscribers please excuse any little hiccups for now and rest easy knowing we will get this fixed as soon as we possibly can. Getting our first podcast posted on our own site is a big step in that direction.
