Corruption at the Highest Levels - Episode 3 breached!

Published by Gary under Episodes, Podshow, Website

Celtic Myth Podshow

Thanks to the keen eyes and ears of one of our listeners who noticed that Episode 3 was only 12 minutes long instead of the expected 26 minutes, we have discovered that cyber-moles have been burrowing through the interwebs and eaten half of Episode 3!

Seriously, thank you to our keen listener. The copy of Episode 3, Bres the Beautiful,  on the server has somehow become corrupted and only the first half played. We have now replaced it with a brand new, shiny Episode 3 and want to apologise to all of our very confused listeners wondering what happened between this point and Episode 4!

Please accept our sincere apologies for this. We recommend that you re-download the episode from our Episodes page and overwrite your locally stored version. Alternatively, right click this episode 3 link and choose Save Link As.. to save to your machine.

Thank you for your patience,

Gary & Ruth

Published by Gary under Episodes, Podshow

Celtic Myth Podshow

Just a quick note to apologise to all of our listeners and let you know that our next episode, Episode 11, is going to be delayed for a couple of days. Life has just overtaken us for a while. I have re-set the counter until the 12th but I’m hoping to get the episode out before that. I am not expecting Episode 12 to be delayed and it will be available at the expected time - 19th July. (I hope :) )

Thank you for your patience

We also talk about a possible delay in releasing Episode 11. Two or three days should be enough to get us back on track.

If you find this format better for you to listen to than Episode 8 and others then let us know so that we can make the necessary changes. We are still getting feedback on both sides of the fence. We hope that now you can hear both versions you are in a better position to make an informed judgement :)
