Did you do a network-wide activation? Try disabling the the plugin in all blogs and then re-enable it in the network plugin page.

Eric, is there any way to remove the date from the “Recent Episodes” widget display?

There is currently no way to customize the widget display.

If there was some way to give that date field a unique class I could remove it with CSS. Is it possible to add a class to that field?
