Thought it would be a relatively simple thing to compile the weeks slop and seed it out. Any reason why it hasn't happened? I didn't think that patreon or stitcher would be more litigous than big media.

There was a lot of talk that podcasting was a medium that's escaped attention in the wake of jan 6th. Useful Idiots pod was kicked off Rolling Stone for their anti-imperialist left positions too, it seems like, and they had a little clout.

    Yeah same, have seen them on reddit but they're usually temporary. A couple of heroes here said they will try and centralize something.

        A weekly torrent with the mp3s seems very doable and distributed. Shit, after all these years and all those torrents I've never actually created a torrent.

            hmm, convenience is fine but something is not working if feeds are going down and we're spending all this energy looking for mp3 files.

            Comic people have a secure distributed system, in place for decades, where you can look at a weekly torrent and choose what files you want that week. Done in seconds.

            People here are spending time tracking down mp3 files of episodes ffs. The replication of labour is insane.
