For some background: I can’t stand ads, so currently I have YouTube Premium and watch some video podcasts there. I’ve been trying to get into podcasts that don’t have video but the ads are always a deal breaker for me.
So if I pay for an ad free podcast in Apple Podcasts for example, is there a way to automatically download new episodes of that? Ideally via CLI, but I’m open to GUI suggestions as well (running on KDE Plasma).
Many podcast that I listen to offer and free RSS feeds when backing them directly (patreon or w.e). You can pop that feed into your favorite podcast app or script something quick. I have a similar setup to what you want that downloads webcomics I enjoy by checking the RSS feeds for new posts.
