Podcasts seem to be the only type of media impossible to find on torrent indexing sites. I listen to a lot of podcasts since I have no friends and want to still engage parasocially. I’m fine with ad supported ones, but would like to explore some of the HBO-style ones. I’m not even a lost customer for them as I live below the poverty line. Anyone have info on this or are podcasts still too niche for the open seas to bother?
Edit: To those unfamiliar with completely paywalled podcasts (not merely pay to remove the ads scenarios) they’re quite common and frequently associated with Patreon. Many podcasts will have separate free & premium feeds, with the flagship serving as an ersatz ad for the latter.


I just use antenna pod and if I wanted to I’m pretty sure I could download the episodes through that and put them on a server. I’m not sure what that would really accomplish for me though.
