Didn't realize you were on an Android device. I just checked with my phone and it has the same problem. If you look at the code that it displays, the link to download the file is in the code (look for ".mp3"). Why the Android browser isn't parsing the HTML, I don't know. I'll have to look into it next week ... this appears to be a problem with the Android browser, not with my code. Hopefully I can find a work around for it.

What's really funny is that my tablet is also Android, but it shows up just fine in it's browser.

Since the problem seems to be isolated to a problem with the mobile browser not parsing the HTML in an RSS feed, I'd suggest the best way to resolve this problem would be to use an actual RSS app to parse the data. Have you installed an RSS app yet and tried the feed at http://www.seibertron.com/podcast/rss

I was unaware there was an RSS app. I'll have to look into it. Before now, I'd only listened to one podcast and they post a direct link to the MP3 file in the podcast thread, so I have never had a need for an RSS app. I'll post again if I got it to work or not after I find one.
