  >I've been wanting to self-host a podcast service. This might be a really stupid question, but how do you download the podcasts to your server? I'm guessing it's like an RSS thing, but how do you the feeds? Great question! Yes, with podgrab[0] you can add RSS urls or OPML files or use the "search" feature which, using your search term, will query the podcasts in either Apple podcasts or podcastindex.com. As an aside, the software developer seems to have a preference for Docker. I do not. As such, I downloaded the sources (Go) and installed on an existing VM. I even packaged up the binary with the rest of the package and it runs just fine, using very little (~150MB) RAM and only 33MB disk space, not including the podcasts, of course. I encourage you to check it out. It works nicely so far (a couple weeks). [0] https://github.com/akhilrex/podgrab https://github.com/akhilrex/podgrab
