Unfortunately, when I initally posted show #13, Feedburner grabbed Shawn's PDF file and used that as the podcast enclosure. I have now fixed this quickly, but for some people (including myself) your copy of iTunes has already grabbed the show and therefore does not seem to have any way to force it to reload if the podcast feed has changed.
I could post a new entry with the podcast MP3 file, but that will cause the vast majority of people to download the file a second time (since their copy of iTunes has not yet pulled down the show the first time, and now will get the corrected RSS feed). To avoid this massive duplication, I am not going to repost it, which means that some folks whose iTunes grabbed it right away will unfortunately have to manually download it from the website. My apologies.
The good news is that I have found out what I have to do to avoid this in the future. (Essentially, I need to add rel="enclosure" to my first <a> tag where I reference the MP3 file.) I've changed my template so that this should not happen again! (He says hopefully...)
Many thanks to the listener who clued me in to this shortly after I posted it! (Thank you! While you will have to manually download the file, your prompt response has saved the vast majority from having to do so. Thank you.)
