Calendar module is stuck on loading for Google ics file with reoccurring events.

I just set my raspberry pi 3 b up with magic mirror. I am trying to get my calendar to load. I can successfully run the debug.js file with the URL updated to point to my ics file and it appears to have no errors. I do observe that while it is running, it hang for a long time everytime it runs into a reoccurring event (Search for recurring events between: x and x). It takes close to 5 minutes to fully process. I have tested another Google account without any recurring events and it worked fine, I then added a couple monthly events that spanned many years and then it stops working. Any thoughts on what I can do? I only need 2 weeks of events to display. Below is the module I am working with.

module: "calendar",
header: "My Calendar",
position: "top_left",
config: {
    calendars: [
        {
            name: "James",
            symbol: "calendar-check",
            url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/xxx/basic.ics",
        },
    ]
}

@hawkevilcat install the older parser

cd ~/MagicMirror
npm install node-ical@0.16.1

That did the trick, thank you.
