Feeds

Where to get it.

An RSS feed. That is the whole thing. Any app that reads podcasts reads this one, there is no exclusive version anywhere, and there never will be.

The thinking

Why there is no exclusive deal.

Exclusivity is worth real money and it is the standard move. Sign to one platform, take the cheque, and the show is behind whichever app that platform owns.

The cost is that a podcast which was findable everywhere becomes findable in one place, and the people who do not use that place simply stop listening. On a show whose entire audience is defined by an interest in farming rather than by a subscription, that is an expensive trade.

So it is an open feed, downloadable, transcript included. That is what podcasting was and it is still the correct answer.

An open feed is what podcasting was, and it is still the right answer.
However you listen

Three ways to get it.

None of these is better than the others and none of them costs anything.

A podcast app

Search the name, or paste the feed address into whatever you already use. It works in all of them because it is not doing anything clever.

The feed directly

A plain RSS address. Paste it anywhere. No account, no token, no tracking pixel dressed up as analytics.

Download the file

Every episode is a downloadable audio file with a transcript beside it. Keep it, put it on something, do what you like with it.

Wondering

What people actually ask.

The two questions this page gets most, answered without a support ticket.

The cast page names every person and what they are actually responsible for, which is not always what the programme implies.

No. This is an unsolicited third-party demonstration build, not affiliated with or endorsed by any of the businesses it describes.
