Podcast search stalling

Grabbed the package from NuGet and dried implementing a basic search:
iTunesSearchManager itsm = new iTunesSearchManager();
var items = itsm.GetPodcasts(query).Result;
Basically copying and pasting from your tests.

But when I try to run it; it just stalls; both locally and live.
I'm trying to get it to run in an ASP.NET MVC app.

Any ideas why this could be happening?
