Hi Noelle,

Thanks for your email and for listening to KQED. We're going to alter our
popup player to include the direct link to the file as you suggest. It was
an oversight (we do it during our pledge time for the live stream). 

It'll take us a few weeks, but we'll get it up for the archive.

Thanks for altering us to the problem and sorry you won;t be able to listen
easily in the meantime. 

Rich Dean
Director of New Media
KQED
