Hi folks. Here's torrents for Pseudopod reaching back to the first publication in August 2006.

The first torrent was not created by me; it covers up to Ep 118, Flash 19 and Reviews 1 and 2 (around Nov 2008).

From then on, I'll use a similar format to the PodCastle torrents: I'll arbitrarily cut them up into six month chunks (January to June and July to December) so I can update them at regular intervals.

--> PodCastle torrents <--
--> Escape Pod torrents <--

Pseudopod Set 01: August 2006 to November 2008 --> http://www.demonoid.me/files/download/1721217/47137426/
Pseudopod Set 02: December 2008 to June 2009 --> http://www.demonoid.me/files/download/2411705/33669590/
Pseudopod Set 03: July 2008 to December 2009 --> http://www.demonoid.me/files/download/2411767/47137426/
Pseudopod Set 04: 2010, January to June --> http://www.demonoid.me/files/download/2411774/26935672/
Pseudopod Set 05: 2010, July to December --> http://www.demonoid.me/files/download/2648499/60605262/
Pseudopod Set 06: 2011, January to June --> http://www.demonoid.me/files/download/2676396/40403508
Pseudopod Set 07: 2011, July to December --> http://www.demonoid.me/files/download/2902039/60605262/

Well, I think it's wonderful.  And thanks for the filename corrections, by the way, on this and the other podcasts.  Feel free to dick with the tags as well, as you see fit, since I trust you to keep all the important info but make things consistent.  When the job of creating these files passes through many hands it's hard to be 100% consistent, and the chore of doing all that stuff is just one more thing we haven't gotten around to.  When you're done I have a mind to give your files to poddisc.com instead of the mess we're using now.  I mean, all the content's there but.. yeah, there are inconsistencies in the tags and naming.  It's partially due to the fact that when a file is live it's not trivial to rename it because of the way high-availability servers work.  You have to upload a new file with a new name (even if the old filename was the one you really wanted), then change the filename the post points at, and then count on podpress (I guess it is) to rename the file yet again after whatever you typed in for the name of the web post, while users of the direct download link will get (perhaps completely different ) original filename the way God and the show's producer intended. 

And all this frustration builds, and I post some run-on sentences about it, and then I go back to drinking scotch and producing more Pseudopod.  Cheers!

Many thanks Ben! Hadn't thought about the mp3 tags; will go back and check 'em out.

Heya. I didn't realise Demonoid is a private tracker. Accordingly, I'm trying to get a new home for these torrents, a public home such as the TPB, isohunt, or mininova. When I do that I'll post here and change the URLs in the first post.

Just updated the torrents URLs... Demonoid is moving to "demonoid.me" rather than ".com".

I'm a new listener, and really enjoying it so far.

I hope this is OK, but I've taken the liberty of uploading the (I think complete) archives of all three Escape Artists podcasts to torrent.  They're sorted into three folders--one for Escape Pod, one for Podcastle, and one for Pseudopod--so you can choose which podcasts to download individually if you want.

You can grab it here - http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/6275922  - please download it, share, and seed! :)


EDIT: Very sorry!!  I'm a newbie at uploading torrent, and completely made a hash of this!  I retagged a few files without thinking, while seeding it, and it corrupted the entire torrent!  Gah!  I won't make that mistake again!

The link has now been corrected.  I won't make the same mistake again, and will leave the files untouched.  If you tried to download it before: sorry, but please delete that torrent and the resulting files, and after that, click to download this torrent.  This one will go through with no problems.  Sorry again, but enjoy!

Awesome.  I've updated the link in the pseudopod.org sidebar.  Thanks!

Listen folks, I totally screwed up that last one, not sure how. So anyways, check the new link above for Set 05. My apologies.

I just checked the link at http://pseudopod.org/support/ and it still links to the Mininova torrent; worth updating to the Pirate Bay one?

(Am downloading and will seed.)

L&c,

FYI I have merged Kibitzer's thread with the few updates from the older "pseudopod torrents" thread, so all relevant links should be included. Feel free to repost links if I missed any.
