CJAM Podcast RSS Feed

CJAM is a local radio station broadcasting on 91.5FM run out of the University of Windsor. They provide Mp3 Archives of their shows split at 60 minute intervals, which usually coincides with a show-change. Unfortunately, though this list of mp3s updates hourly, it is not augmented with an rss feed. I decided to fix that today, with a simple regex parser to turn the Mp3 Archives page into a podcast/rss feed.

Additionally, given that a particular person may be interested in a specific show, rather than the entire feed body, the script permits filtering of the show list. Just optionally specify the day and/or hour url parameters. Both accept comma-delimited lists of arguments, permitting flexible grouping of events. For example, rss-feed-icon-14×14.png Daybreak in Dixie runs 8-10am on Sunday. However, I like listening to rss-feed-icon-14×14.pngWe Surrender and Trancefusion on Tuesday night. Choice is good.
These feeds can be syndicated into iTunes, or any other rss-aware media player.
