I don't totally get how all this secret re-hosting and whatnot works, or even RSS feeds in general (I literally just use some hosting website for my podcast), but, given that Mary is still updating BlackWolfFeed with Chapo episodes, is there a way to get those episodes onto a podcast app? Because rn I have to download the ep on my laptop, then upload it to like google drive, and then download it onto my phone from the google drive app, which is kinda a hassle (for a free pirated episode, I know, boo-hoo). Obviously it would be easier if the feed could just be accessed/downloaded straight from an app like apple podcasts.

Anyone have a fix for this? (again sorry if this is a stupid baby question)

    So, with the Shammu feed links I would just copy them into the search of a podcast app, the feed would show up, and then I would save the feed. That doesn't seem to work with those links. What do I do to get them to work?

      your podcast app might not support atom feeds (it has rss in the url but it's actually atom format for some reason), unless you're willing to switch to a different app i don't know of a solution

      edit: it could also be because these feeds just link to a place where you can download the podcast, they don't work like shammu's feeds (idk the technical term but i think there's at least 2 different fields? that an rss feed can have a url in and i guess podcast apps only look at one)

        If you have the blackwood feed as a RSS in Pocket Casts, each post to the sub (each episode post by Mary) will show as a new episode, and the link to Mega is in the episode description. So you can use the pod app as a way to see when there's a new ep, but you still need to download it through your browser.

        Yeah, I think that's the problem. I seem to have found a temporary solution, as on the pocketcasts app there's an up and running Black Wolf Feed that you can just search for in the app without a link, so, even thought it's not the app I normally use, it'll do for now
