For some background: I can’t stand ads, so currently I have YouTube Premium and watch some video podcasts there. I’ve been trying to get into podcasts that don’t have video but the ads are always a deal breaker for me.
So if I pay for an ad free podcast in Apple Podcasts for example, is there a way to automatically download new episodes of that? Ideally via CLI, but I’m open to GUI suggestions as well (running on KDE Plasma).
I’ve found that if I set my VPN to Portugal then download podcast episodes (I use AntennaPod) no ads are inserted.
The sponsors embedded by the actual podcast hosts are still there, but there are no inserted ads.
