Spodcast VS rssify

Only way that I know of. Haven't tried it myself. Not easy for sure, but if you got access to a server it could be a good way of doing this.

Well, there's...

- the by now ubiquitous Lex Friedman because of the interesting guests he manages to snare.

- James Lindsay's 'New Discourses' because he dares to shine a light on the cesspit which is academia nowadays - rather important for me seeing how as my daughter is intent on taking up English language and literature, a discipline which has become infested with the type of critical theory nonsense Lindsay has been dissecting for the last years.

- I used to listen to Joe Rogan - going so far as to make a tool to enable the use of standard RSS podcast tools with Spotify-hosted netcasts [1] - but more or less stopped doing so due to a lack of interest, mostly due to a lack of what I consider to be interesting guests. As a rule I come to these types of netcasts for the guests, not for the host.

It's hard to tell from that half sentence what you're actually looking for. If you just want to listen to (Spotify exclusive) podcasts, there's Spodcast for example, which downloads Podcasts from Spotify and creates an RSS feed that you can use with any podcast client.

Simple things like:

Spodcast, a Spofify->RSS bridge [1], made it because I listen to netcasts while working outside out of network reach (forest and field work).

Reader, a native-look epub/pdf/cb[rz] reader for Nextcloud [2], made it when my daughter was issued an iPad at school on which she was not allowed to install any "apps" while I thought the thing was tailor-made for reading books. The iPad was returned years ago but I recently updated Reader to make it run again.

...and a host of small tools which I make just when I need them, dumping them to GH for all to peruse, e.g.:

ZMapi, a Zoneminder CLI tool [3], made it when I installed a video surveillance system in the new barn which uses Chinese cameras which I do not want to be able to access the 'net directly.

bs, a Bookstack API CLI tool [4], made it when I needed to upload a large number of conference videos to a Bookstack site.

...etc

I don't have much time for these side things since I'm mostly busy on and around the farm but every now and then the weather is a good excuse to keep me inside...

Ability to install a free software distribution, side-load software, run a plethora of Linux apps through Termux, fix the screen if you happen to break it without the thing complaining about "non-genuine parts", build, run and distribute software for the device without needing to pay a third party for the privilege of doing so, hook the thing up to a keyboard and display to use it for real work, install a full firewall blocking outgoing as well as incoming traffic...

Oh wait, those are all things you can not do with those iOS devices. Since these happen to be things I do it seems that iPhone won't be myPhone. Also, why don't these friggin' iOS devices support Ogg/Vorbis? I just added a transcoding option to Spodcast [1] to allow those poor souls using such devices to follow Spotify-hosted podcasts through RSS. None of my devices had any problems with Ogg/Vorbis but it turns out iOS simply does not support it. VLC on iOS does as do some other apps but those are not podcast players. Bad Apple.
