I am sorry to bug you with this post, but the enhanced version of episode 80 was uploaded wrong. I had the wrong info in the xml file and episode 80 was really episode 79 as you may have noticed. I fixed the xml file now and ask that you please update itunes podcast section and it should download the correct episode 80 for you.
Thank you for your understanding, I’ll try to be more careful. :-)
