I've tried dowloading episode 2969 through itunes several times without success. At the same time, episode 2968 downloaded flawlessly making me think its a tech problem with that particular episode.

After month of searching and researching I would like to recommend a podcast software to FDR listeners who use their Android phones or tablets to listen on their way to work and missed the possibility to continue listening to the same podcast at their PC. The software works like the podcast part of iTunes, but additionally offers an Android app and a browser based interface. The app is called Pocket Casts. URL: http://www.shiftyjelly.com/ I used the Android app for ca. 6 month and I tested the new web app for 3 days. Pocket Casts is the most reliable and effortless podcasting experience I have encountered. Pocket Casts offers features like: offline listening on mobile device variable listening speeds automatic downloading of new episodes saving and syncing progress in the cloud (even for deleted episodes) cloud backup of podcast playback progress Until now only iPhone users had the luxury of syncing PC and phone by using iTunes on both devices. Until now I used iTunes on Windows and had to remember and manually set my listening progress if I switched listening devices during a FDR podcast. Fellow forum member Magenta recommends Pocket Casts as well: source: https://board.freedomainradio.com/topic/40167-android-device-unable-to-play-podcasts/ Example of a hyperlink with timestamp of an FDR podcast: http://pca.st/DsdI The Android app is €2.99 one-time The web based app for Pcs is ca. $9 one-time. There is a full feature 14-day free trial period for the web app. The iOS app is $4.99 one-time. If you know any software that can sync Android and Windows as effortlessly and reliably, please post a link, especially if your app is cheaper. By the way if you are not happy with the YouTube automatic resume function to your last playback position I recommend the free Chrome Browser extension Video Resumer. I am using the extension for ca. 6 month and it works reliably. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/video-resumer/bongjkoajofkfpofginnhecihgaeldpe?utm_source=chrome-app-launcher-info-dialog

It is called Village Wisdom Podcast and available via iTunes here -- https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/village-wisdom-podcast/id916496501 The target audience is young women and teens so may not be appropriate for most here. I felt that I needed to fill in that gap a little bit in educating about peaceful parenting. And specifically I felt I needed to offer the wisdom from my own mistakes to hopefully make a difference in at least one child's life. My children are grown and have children of their own and I cannot get their childhood's back for them. However, i can reach other young women and attempt to stop them from making the mistake of having a child when you are still a child. I'm no philosopher but I have lots of life experience to share. I'm completely on board with peaceful parenting and working diligently to help that movement progress forward at an even more rapid pace. A more important focus of the podcast is being prepared -- really, really prepared -- for marriage or life partnership and having children. Peaceful parenting will be a no-brainer for these women. Thanks for listening and please post reviews and comments on iTunes as they will expect it and bug me about it. More importantly, it will help me get the word out.
