How would I have known if I didn’t click?

Did I want to complain? No, I wanted to listen to it.


Why didn't you click "play" if you wanted to listen to it?


A podcast is at-the-very-least a rss feed where items have a media enclosure element pointing to something for a pod-catcher to download [1].

If something else allows you to listen to episodic content via a player and does not satisfy this condition then it is factually wrong to call it a podcast. Do you think a TV show released weekly on Netflix is also a podcast?

You can't listen to what you have made without having a spotify account (or clicking directly on the webpage), ergo it's not a podcast.

If only there was such a link on that page... Like Spotify, but maybe for "more platforms". If only... :-P


Not sure if you're being serious, but there isn't as far as i can see.


On the linked page there's: https://anchor.fm/s/7735d924/podcast/rss

It's also in the "more platforms" section right next to "Spotify".


Anchor Spotify rss I have none of those. I have Apple podcasts.
