Broken!

podpress is now broken on my site, with the error “An error of type E_COMPILE_ERROR was caused in line 116 of the file ../wp/wp-content/plugins/podpress/podpress_class.php. Error message: Array and string offset access syntax with curly braces is no longer supported

I have to go into recovery mode and disable it to make the site work. And then all my mp3 links disappear. Any workaround? One would imagine the info is stored in the mysql.
