Cannot add podcast via Apple Podcasts link
-
I’m trying to add podcast via the following Apple Podcasts link:
https://podcasts.apple.com/il/podcast/שיחות-מהבגאז-פודקאסט-רכב/id1798005787
And getting “Failed” every time.
Is there any chance to add the podcast to the catalog?
Thank you very much!

I tried to obtain the podcast’s RSS feed through Apple’s API, but received an error. This could be an indication that the podcast is being added to Apple Podcasts directly and the podcast creator doesn’t host an RSS feed for it.
RSS feeds is what Pocket Casts uses to discover shows and new episodes for those shows. Do you know if this podcast is available on any other platforms or if they offer an RSS feed link on their website?

It’s available on Spotify and their own site too. But I couldn’t find an RSS feed link.

Hi @alexagranov1,
I’ve checked the website you linked (https://www.calcalist.co.il/podcast/category/40442), and I also don’t see a readily available RSS feed URL there.
Unfortunately, Pocket Casts relies on RSS feeds to add and update podcasts. If a podcast doesn’t provide a standard RSS feed, we’re unable to add it to our platform.
It appears this podcast might be prioritizing distribution through specific platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, without making the underlying RSS feed easily accessible.
