Accelerated Mobile Pages > Unknown syntax error

Google search console (webmaster tools) is complaining about 2 posts:
http://detourradio.com/2016/03/06/playlist-for-sunday-march-6th/
http://detourradio.com/2016/02/28/playlist-for-sunday-february-28th/
I think it might be something to do with a shortcode similar to:
[audio http://ruxtonfoundation.org/audio/Detour2016-03-20.mp3 ]
which was in those posts but has been removed. Here’s a post that still has the shortcode:
http://detourradio.com/2016/03/20/playlist-for-sunday-march-20th/Any ideas on what to do about it?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

When we need Staff help with issues Volunteers cannot resolve like this one we type modlook into the sidebar tags on our forum threads. I did that for you. How do I get a Moderator/Staff reply for my question? https://en.support.wordpress.com/getting-help-in-the-forums/#how-do-i-get-a-moderatorstaff-reply-for-my-question Then we subscribe to this thread so we are notified when they respond. To subscribe look in the sidebar of this thread, find the subscribe to topics link and click it.
From what I have read in the Search Engine Journal the need for the AMP WordPress plugin to be installed into the WoprdPress.COM platform is clear. We need Two Versions of Each Article We Publish; We need to Update All Images and Videos (a custom tag is required ); Original Page Versions Must be Modified “/amp/” must be added to the permalinks of article pages (posts).

Hello, Paul!
I’ve checked your post with the audio shortcode and it’s converted to a link on its AMP Version.
I don’t think Google Console would complain about a simple link.
Could you please give me more details about what Google Console is complaining about your posts?
Cheers!

Here is the Message in Search Console:
x errors on your AMP pages
March 20, 2016
To: Webmaster of http://detourradio.com/,
Google systems have detected that some of your AMP pages do not meet our guidelines and will therefore not show in Google Search AMP-related features. The following report provides examples of pages with errors:
I click on “See AMP Errors” to get to Search Appearance->Accelerated Mobile pages graph. It now says there are 3 pages with errors — “unknown syntax errors”. I click on the >> at the far right and it shows the previous 2 URLs and now there is a third one:
http://detourradio.com/2016/03/13/playlist-for-sunday-march-13th/
I click on the >> next to the march-13th URL and I get a pop-up:
Unknown syntax error

Canonical URL:

Last detected: 3/14/16(Looks like it’s an “unkown” syntax error? Is that worse than “unknown”?)
Clicking on #1 above takes me to the AMP Reference.
Clicking on #2 shows the post with a red rectangle at the top with the text “source source must start with”
Editing the post in WordPress shows the first line at the top of that post is:
[audio http://ruxtonfoundation.org/audio/Detour2016-03-13.mp3 ]Earlier this month I got this message in Search Console:
Fix mobile usability issues found on http://detourradio.com/
March 2, 2015
To: webmaster of http://detourradio.com/
Google systems have tested 84 pages from your site and found that 100% of them have critical mobile usability errors. The errors on these 84 pages severely affect how mobile users are able to experience your website. These pages will not be seen as mobile-friendly by Google Search, and will therefore be displayed and ranked appropriately for smartphone users.The Search Console graph shows there are now zero critical mobile usability errors (down from ~24 on 12/26/15). I didn’t do anything to cause that, as far as I know.
