Again, however, let's be clear about the issue: The episodes in question have been syncing to the iPod successfully throughout this discussion. The problem isn't getting the episodes to sync, but getting the playlist to sync, so podcasts can be played in a desired sequence without having to operate the iPod.

I don't have a touch to test but I can't say I can think of anyway around it if you've opted to sync the NPR playlist on both the Music tab & the Podcast tab.

Under podcasts tab in iTunes, select:
- Automatically include ALL episodes of SELECTED PODCASTS
- Check all podcasts in the Podcasts pane
- Select all playlists which contain podcasts in the 'Include Episodes from Playlists' pane

On the Podcast tab
1. Leave 'Sync Podcasts: checked
2. UNCHECK 'Automatically include...'
3. Check the appropriate playlists in 'Include Episodes from Playlists'

... But I didn't realize anyone had mentioned a potential conflict created by having a playlist selected under both the Music and Podcast tabs. Has that caused a problem, in your experience? I'm mid-sync right now, but I'll have to try that next.

The point I was failing to make was the one Kevin made - you needed to *Select all playlists which contain podcasts in the 'Include Episodes from Playlists' pane*. Glad you got there in the end but I still think this is a totally unnecessary complication to the way mixed media playlists operate.
