Please add login support for NY TImes Audio

Here’s a form you could fill out to let the NYT know your concerns. The area of the site where you can submit requests is here: https://help.nytimes.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
Hello,
I use the app PocketCast for my NYT audio listening. I’m dismayed by the choice of NYT to use only Apple and Spotify for their podcasting. I hear ads on the podcasts all the time about responsible journalism, yet this seems at odds with one goal of most publications: to have their news heard by the most people they can. I pay for a subscription specifically to support NYT audio journalism. Please consider supporting the PocketCast app for users of NYT audio.
Best,

@cothebadger thanks for sharing this with us. We are in contact with NYT and hope to come up with a solution, but appreciate all of the feedback coming through!

@gassime The Good Whale is now showing all episodes.
@cothebadger @kapods22 As mentioned previously, you should still be able to access all episodes via Pocket Casts. If you’re having trouble, please let us know which podcast is affected so we can look into it. Thanks!

@staff-donnie Two more that are just showing the first two episodes: The Kids of Rutherford County; S-Town.

Hi there, @notanyron, and @pocketcasts77bf3970c0! I checked on the podcasts you mentioned and found that they have several episodes that are limited to Subscribers Only. This is why you only see the first two or three episodes listed in Pocket Casts. You need to subscribe via the New York Times app to listen to the rest of the episodes.
-
@staff-eleanor the original intent of this request was that subscribers could log into NYT via Pocket Casts so they wouldn’t have to use the NYT app. @staff-donnie mentioned in March that all episodes of all NYT podcasts should be accessible via Pocket Casts.

Hi @notanyron! Sorry for any confusion there. I’ve asked about The Kids of Rutherford County to find out if it is possible to include that podcast too.

NYT claim that there is support for login in Pocket Casts but this seems to not be the case: https://help.nytimes.com/30729304846612-link-your-new-york-times-account-to-other-podcast-platforms

OMG it worked for me! Thank you NYTimes.
Thank you for sharing the link. It was a lot of reloading, but I finally found the premium feeds and added them to my Pockcasts.
