It is. The PHP feed works fine. (
http://www.thefump.com/cast.php)
But pointing the link tag to a PHP file instead of an audio file
generates a "this feed is not valid" error in iTunes.

As I said - if the header is correct, it should be OK.
I looked at your link, but I didn't see any php files being pointed to -
just the mp3 files themselves.
Sorry. Here's the code for the feed. It pulls the most recent 5
entries from the database (ignoring future ones that haven't gone live
yet) and formats it. It's based on the code I use to update my Manic
Mondays podcast (
http://www.suddendeath.org/cast/feed.xml) which I've
never had a problem with. But those always point directly to the MP3
file.
