@ The Duck of Minerva

A Test of the New Podcast Feed

Minerva Cast • Podcasting

One reason we decided to move to WordPress is superior podcast support. Of course, there’s a learning curve involved. So this is a test run of the new podcast feed. If it works, you should have the option of playing my interview with Janice Bially Mattern directly from this post. 

That’s all, folks.

    The podcast player may not work properly in Chrome for MacOS. Anyone know why I keep on getting a missing plugin error?

      Works fine for me on Chrome (23.0.1271.6 beta), Dan. Perhaps you can try reinstalling Quicktime? Windows and Linux users will have to install Quicktime, which I don’t exactly like. Is it possible to have podcasts in a different format?

    Would you please provide an .mp3 file? I do not want to install Apple products on my laptop, and I prefer to listen to audio podcasts.

      If you look at our podcasts page you will see that we began providing mp3 versions with episode 10 or so. This is a test run. So don’t worry, you can satisfy whatever anti-apple thing you’ve got going on :-)

        I should have taken the time to see that!
