Above is a link to a doc with the complete transcripts. It has all 52 lessons. I had been looking for ages, when I thought of scribd.com. Also, below are the complete audio files:

Right click on the files and save target/linked content to your desktop. If you want to set up to download all automatically, use the Firefox extension "DownloadThemAll!!" Hope this helps someone.

Just to let you know, Those audio files aren't complete. The actual FIA audio component is quite extensive, way more extensive than the files listed on that site.

I looked at the times, and the mp3s are indeed much shorter than the episodes. For instance, episode number 2 runs for about 28 minutes. The mp3s for that episode run for around 24 minutes, but there are long pauses for repetition and some dialogue is slowed down. Hope it's still useful, though.
I guess audacity might be a better choice for recording the entire episodes.

The above link has all of the FIA audio, indexed with web pages, in one downloadable zip file. If you have the capability to download and burn the contents to disc it is recommended that you do so. The zip file is a little over 1.7 Gigabytes in size. There are 1765 mp3 files in the download. By the link being posted here with the potential of many people downloading it, it may be that the link will not be working for long.

This is from another thread on FIA and if this doesn't work, I know that the audio is available on Uz-Translations.

Tried the above link and I couldn't access it, probably due to huge visitation. Here's an idea which worked for me: Visit
http://otter.middlebury.edu/ns-media/frenchmedia/action/52-0 0.mp3
change the number in the url each time to access the number you want. It goes to 52. It will play in Quicktime. To download it to your computer, go to File:save as. Hope this works for you.
