The fine folks at the controls of This American Life have finally ditched Real Audio in favor of MP3’s. Unfortunately, they aren’t yet providing a Podcast feed. So I’ve thrown together a simple feed. You can subscribe here.
This is simply an RSS feed which points to their publicly accessible MP3’s. I’m not hosting anything. (I am linking to the MP3 using coral cache to reduce their bandwidth consumption.)
The feed only contains the 20 most recent episodes. For a full archive with links to the MP3’s you can use my (currently bare bones) archive page.

Thank you Jared. You are a fine person. Keep up the good work. We all appreciate it.
Comment by Jordan 04.25.06 @ 2:31 pmThanks so much for this! If only there was one for Wiretap too…

Just paste into your podcast client and you’ll get wiretap each week.
Comment by jared 05.16.06 @ 7:34 pmWow, thanks for doing that, Jared. As a big Wiretap fan, I am always frustrated that there hasn’t yet been an official podcast, and am usually away from my radio on Friday nights and Sunday afternoons!
Comment by Chris 06.09.06 @ 9:46 pm[...] Jon Udell kindly set up an RSS feed for them, as Jared Benedict had done some time earlier. [...]
Pingback by dose :: don’t understand what the net is for? :: June :: 2006 06.20.06 @ 12:39 pmI was wondering when someone else was going to find them as MP3’s. I just noticed it the other day and have steadily been downloading old episodes for my drive home. This American Life is one of the best things on NPR.
