Avoiding all the ott xmas fervour for two weeks

[CopperBolt]

Hi all

Im already p1ssed off with zoe ball et al gushing frantically about "crimbo" and playing band aid etc already.
So, what I thought would be nice would be to listen to say, "Im sorry I havent a clue" back episodes on my commute instead.

Ideally Id want to download to my iphone over wifi then start playback in the car so I get no dropouts and dont use up my data. Iphone already linked to car so that bits fine.
But how do I go about getting the source? Youtube has episodes but not downloadable wihout yet another £12 a month subscription which Im afraid Im not doing.

So anyone got a cunning plan?

Many thanks

You can down load in the BBC Sounds App, which is free, or Spotify, which needs a subscription for downloads I think. You are limited to what they have available, but there is plenty on both if you like a Radio 4 630 pm comedy offer - you may have to hunt down the series link on the Radio 4 Extra show schedule though because not everything they carry is available via the "comedy" tab on the home page.

I do have spotify and sounds so I'll have a look.

for the podcast site I guess I'Il need to go to the apple store and download a podcast player?

You may have Apple Podcasts on your phone somewhere already.

Radio 3. It's a different planet.

Possibly the only programme, TV or Radio, where understatement is the norm.

In March 2020 they described the Covid situation as 'the current inconvenience'.

So Ive signed up for this site, login on my phone, find isihac, copy the podcast link, go to apple podcasts, library, "add a show by URL" paste the url in, and it keeps coming up with Unable to follow - server or feed cannot be found. Grrrrrrr.

No idea why it wont find it.

anyone got any ideas?

Thanks

[Edit] tried again over wifi instead of using 3G and its worked. I now have ISIHAC downloaded in podcasts and working inthe car. Thanks all!
