Hi , just discovered this podcast, and cannot find ALL the podcasts from the beginning. Anyone know how to access them?

Hi Mick, I was running an alternate server called podango which had all the shows from year dot but sadly they closed down over the holiday break. Due to storage restrictions on most servers it's impossible to keep them all. I am searching for ways around this and when I do I will let you know...thanks for listening.
