Early Release Problems and Fix (Patreon)

Hey everyone, I'm writing about something that is kind of annoying. People have recently (as in, over the past week or so) written in about some problems with the new Duckfeed Early Release RSS feed, titled "erlyburdz". These folks were complaining that it stopped updating with new episodes. I have no idea what percentage of people have experienced this problem, and I haven't been able to replicate it myself.

Some people have had luck unsubbing and re-subbing. That seems very fiddly, and the provider we're using for this service isn't the best anyway. So I've set up a new service with a new feed. If you're subbed to the old feed and aren't having any problems, you don't need to take any action. Your subscription will forward to the new feed automatically.

For the next part, it's important that you view this page on the Patreon website. URLs get messed up in the emails Patreon sends out, we've found. Are you reading this on patreon.com? Cool.

The URL you want to use for the Early Release feeds is as follows:

https://erlyburdz.fireside.fm/rss 

Got it? Cool. You can drop that into your podcast player of choice, and even into iTunes if that's how you do things.

As always, please keep this URL a secret as best you can. It is intended only for $5+ members of our Patreon.

Thanks!
