We are currently experiencing problems with an expired security certificate on the server that contains our podcast library. When you try to access a podcast from our media server, you receive an error message warning you about an expired certificate.
If your browser does allow you to continue or to set up an exception, please do so and continue to access the page as normal. Some more recent browsers will not allow you to continue to an “insecure” site – in which case you may need to wait until the certificate is updated (within the next few hours) before accessing the podcasts.
