ANNOUCEMENT: Problems with last Sunday's broadcast

Unfortunately, there was a problem with the rebroadcast of Show 198 on Sunday 6 December 2009. There was a website outage on www.blast1386.com which meant it was impossible to access the site and launch the live stream. This meant that those who go through the main site to listen to the show could not do so last week. Those people who have a direct link to the audio stream were unaffected.

The problem appears to be resolved and all should be well for next week.

If this happens in future, go to www.live365.com and search for Blast 1386. You should be able to launch the live stream through this page.
