Short answer:
    You've got a ton of formatting junk in the feed.  Take it out.

Long(er) answer is feeds are designed to carry textual info and small 
amounts of extra data (like enclosures, etc).  Not a ton of formatting and 
scripting.  You need to make a feed that's composed of text, not just web 
posts full of bells-and-whistles.   Feeds are (largely) designed to allow 
readers to READ them, not be inundated with a barrage of web gizmos.  That's 
what web pages are for, not feeds.

So, simplify the feed and it'll work.
