If you are using a dialup connection, here is a solution to help you still enjoy the podcast.

Instead of clicking with the LEFT mouse button on the link, click on the link with the RIGHT mouse button.

A menu should be displayed.
Select "Save Target As..."
Enter a location and filename for the RSBPodCast1.mp3 to be saved on your hard drive and select "Ok".

It will take a while for the file to download onto your hard drive. The file is around 5 Megabytes and contains about 8 minutes of audio. I compressed the file as much as I could (from 8 megs) without destroying the quality.

If you are fortunate to by on Windows XP, just choose "Open" after the file has been downloaded.
If you are not using Windows XP, after the file is downloaded, locate the file using Windows explorer (files and folders) and double click on the mp3 file.

By first downloading the file, you are eliminating the need for the dialup connection to keep up with the speed from which you are listening to the podcast.

If you have a broadband internet connection (DSL, Satellite or Cable Modem) and encounter a problem with playing our PodCast with a left mouse click...

Then try the same posted comment instructions above, by first downloading the mp3 file with a RIGHT mouse click onto your computer. You perhaps don't have an mp3 player installed or assigned correctly. If you can get the mp3 file to play, but just not within your browser (with an immediate left mouse click), then you may need to install a mp3 player plugin for your browser. Consider installing QuickTime. Stinky uses QuickTime 7.0.3 and has no problems. You can download a free version at http://www.apple.com/quicktime
