Why does my Galaxy S4 Active stop playing while listening to radio show archives?

[AC Question]

why does my galaxy s4 active stop playing while listening to radio show archives?

While listening to the archives of a PRX public radio show ( American Routes ) on my galaxy s4 active, the show will stop playing about 20 minutes into it. I have already contacted American Routes technical dept, and it's not an issue with them.
I had listened to these archives for quite a while on my old iPhone without any issues.
I am able to access the show without any problems with the Tune In radio app ( but they don't have the entire archives )
Any thoughts?
Please keep answers simple.......I'm somewhat technically challenged
Thx
Peter

Welcome to Android Central! How are you listening to those archived shows? Is it on a website using the browser? Are you using a PRX app? Are you downloading the file and using a music player to play it?

Is the browser accessing the site as a mobile site or desktop site? If it's on the mobile site, see what happens if you tap Menu, then Request Desktop Site, and try playing it again.

Ok, have you tried different browsers? Are you using Chrome? If the stock Internet browser and Chrome do the same thing, try another one like Dolphin.

Ive been timing it and it shuts off right at 20 min every time on all 3 browsers
