Is there a reason why u cant fetch details of a retired shows?

when i’m on the spinitron website, i realize i can look through playlists and details of a retired show. however, on the api i can’t (returns 404 like suggested in the documentation). is there a workaround for this? thanks

Hi Camille,

The reason for not supporting that is because nobody maintains correct schedule information about the past so there’s a high likelihood that the information about scheduling is wrong.

Past playlists are considered authoritative so using those instead is the work around.

The general philosophy being: shows in the future; playlists in the past.

I guess what you’re looking for is a way to navigate from a playlist of a retired show to other playlists of the same show. Is that right?
