Borrowed Time is in the iTunes store!
For your convenience the full feed of Borrowed Time, which contains the story episodes and my exciting trivia-filled companion episodes, is now listed in the iTunes store. You can now easily subscribe in by using the link here or by clicking on the iTunes icon in the right sidebar. No fuss, no muss, no copy-and-paste!
iTunes problems are resolved...mostly
As I reported last time there was an issue with the Borrowed Time episodes that was preventing them from downloading into iTunes. I managed to overcome my techtardness and discover what the issue was and fix the episode files.
If you subscribed to the full feed of the book from www.Penslinger.com then you can click the Get or Get All buttons in iTunes to download the episodes.
If you subscribed to the story-only feed of the book from www.Podiobooks.com you will still have problems downloading the episodes into iTunes. I am working with the fine folks at Podiobooks to resolve this, but technical difficulties outside of all our control is making it take longer than I had hoped.
I will post another update when we have the Podiobooks feed resolved. Thank you for your patience with me as I'm working to get this story to you in whatever format you desire.

A note to iTunes users...
I am aware that most of the Borrowed Time episodes will not download to iTunes on either the Penslinger or Podiobooks feeds. I am working to resolve the situation and will post an update once it is resolved.
Thanks for your patience and I hope to have an update for this soon.
