UPDATE – The files for this episode are hosted on Libsyn and the MP3 appears to be good. However, there is a problem with the Ogg file. I am troubleshooting this issue.

UPDATE 2 – In my testing this is only effecting the Ogg web player and the one fix I’ve tried has not worked, so I have disabled the Ogg web player and will try uploading them separately next time to see whether or not the issue persists. Please let me know if you run into any issues since we have made a change to hosting.
