Given how iHeartMedia, Spotify, and Apple are all more and more invested in the podcast ecosystem it seems they are purchasing content and putting it behind a paywall. I’d like to make sure the podcasts I care about are backed up.
I saw the internet archive had a podcasts section but there wasn’t a lot of the content I’d expect to see so also interested if anyone is building a public archive
Can’t say on the archive part, but personally I download the podcasts that I like to keep. The easiest way, I find, is to find the RSS link and then use Jdownloader2 or YT-DLP.
