Greetings David,

Can you pass along the message below? Unfortunately, people will need to reset up the podcasts.

==

You will need to delete and re-add the podcasts using the URLs below. I have moved the Morse Code Ninja Podcasts from Amazon to DigitalOcean. The project was far more successful than I anticipated! The cost would have been prohibitively expensive on Amazon with so many users, so I have found a cheaper solution. Sorry for the inconvenience. On a positive note, the new RSS feeds now work on Google Podcasts. (Fingers crossed that it stays that way.)

The original podcasts are now broken. Whatever was downloaded will still be playable, but you won't be able to download any new episodes.

I wish everyone all the best on their Morse Code journey!

iOS Setup:
•Launch the Podcasts app
•Click the Library icon at the bottom of the app
•In the upper right-hand corner, click the "..." icon.
•Click the "Add a Show by URL..."
•Type/cut-and-paste the URL from below and click the Follow button

macOS Setup:
•Launch the Podcasts app
•From the menu, click File -> Add a Show by URL...
•Type/cut-and-paste the URL from below and click the Follow button

Google Podcasts Setup (Android and iOS):
•Launch/install Google Podcasts
•Click the "Activity" icon (bottom-right)
•Click the "Subscriptions" link (top-right)
•Click the "···" menu (upper-right)
•Select "Add by RSS feed"
•Type/cut-and-paste the URL from below
•Click "Subscribe"

Note that the Google Podcasts setup is slightly different if you have an older Android device and cannot install the latest Google Podcasts. For older versions of the software, you will need to select Library then Subscriptions. Then there is a symbol of a paperclip with a + sign which is where you add the RSS link. (As additional options, Podverse and AntennaPod for Android are also known to work.)

Greetings David,

Thanks for passing along the announcement to others! Today I heard back from others that it works as expected on Android devices. Below are the instructions. (Just replying to you since I probably can’t send directly to the list.) 


Google Podcasts Setup (Android and iOS):
• Launch/install Google Podcasts
• Click the "Activity" icon (bottom-right)
• Click the "Subscriptions" link (top-right)
• Click the "···" menu (upper-right)
• Select "Add by RSS feed"
• Type in the RSS feed URL
• Click "Subscribe"


Note: The Google Podcasts setup is slightly different if you have an older Android device and cannot install the latest Google Podcasts. You will need to select Library then Subscriptions. Then there is a symbol of a paperclip with a + sign which is where you add the RSS link. (As additional options, Podverse and AntennaPod [both available by f-droid] for Android are also known to work.)

Merry Christmas everyone, from Gene AD0WE who says:

I have released the Morse Code Ninja Course and Practice sets as a series of podcasts. This has been long requested. (Please note that I don't have an android device to test this on. If you run into problems, please let me know.)

Podcasts are a great option if you prefer to have audio files on your mobile or portable device. They benefit from downloading content as needed, being available offline, remembering where you left off, and not having to copy files to your device manually.

The Morse Code Ninja podcasts are private, so you will not find them on the Apple Podcasts Catalog, Google Podcasts Library, or other podcast networks. You will need to use the URLs below. (I may officially publish them at a later date.)


iOS Setup:
• Launch the Podcasts app
• Click the Library icon at the bottom of the app
• In the upper right-hand corner, click the "..." icon.
• Click the "Add a Show by URL..."
• Type in the URL from below and click the Follow button

macOS Setup:
• Launch the Podcasts app
• From the menu, click File -> Add a Show by URL... 
• Type in the URL from below and click the Follow button


If you have an iOS device and macOS laptop/iMac and have both set up with the same Apple ID and iCloud storage, podcasts will show up on the other devices as you set them up on one device.

Note that podcasts typically have new episodes at the top of the listing. That doesn't make sense for this use case. I will maintain an ordering from easiest to hardest, which will match the order on YouTube.
