Sorry.  Here's the code for the feed.  It pulls the most recent 5 
entries from the database (ignoring future ones that haven't gone live 
yet) and formats it.  It's based on the code I use to update my Manic 
Mondays podcast (http://www.suddendeath.org/cast/feed.xml) which I've 
never had a problem with.  But those always point directly to the MP3 
file.
