SITE IS (TEMPORARILY?) DOWN

All of our files, past & present, are hosted on the Internet Archive ( https://archive.org/ ), which has been down since the middle of last week following a DDoS attack. 

Some elements of that site's functionality have been restored, but there is no timetable for when the entire site (and thus any of our podcast files) will be available.
