Acast podcast listening app (Patreon)

For those of you who use the Acast podcast listening app, they just announced that they will be closing it down so you will have to switch to a different app. 

Here is a link to an article from Acast on how to switch: https://learn.acast.com/en/articles/6025940-which-podcast-listening-app-should-i-use

Also, here are our instructions on connecting to the premium feed in case you need them again:

As a Patron, you get access to the Premium episodes in the following ways:

1) On your PHONE PODCAST APP by using the instructions below. Pros: easy access to all 1000+ episodes. Cons: nothing of note.

2) On our PATREON PAGE. Pros: easy to access recent episodes. Cons: hard to find older episodes.

3) On the “Patron Eps” tab on our WEBSITE (PsychologyInSeattle.com). Use the password: bobcares . Pros: access to all 1000+ episodes, including premium, in one place. Cons: not convenient.

PHONE PODCAST APP:

For this to work, you need to 1) be logged into your Patreon account (via the Patreon app or browser), 2) be a patron (lowest tier and up), and 3) have a podcast phone app (Apple Podcasts, Podcast Addict, etc.) installed on your phone.

Step 1: Go to the Psychology In Seattle Patreon page (on your browser or Patreon phone app) and click on “My Membership”.

(If you don’t see “My Membership”, you might have an older version of the Patreon app. If so, either update the app or click on “Overview”.)

Step 2: Scroll down and click on “Connect to RSS Feed”.

Step 3: On the Acast page, click on “Allow”.

Step 4: On the next Acast page, click on your preferred podcast phone app (e.g., Apple Podcasts, Podcast Addict, etc.). That should take you to your podcast phone app. Click “Subscribe”. You’re done.

(If you don’t see your preferred podcast app on the list, either use another podcast app or use the following instructions: Click on the copy icon at the bottom to copy the URL. Then open your podcast app and follow the instructions to manually add a podcast. For example, on Downcast, you click on the “Add” button, then “Add Podcast Manually”, then paste the previously copied URL into the URL box, then click “Subscribe”.)

This process subscribes you to a unique feed that is just for you. Each patron gets their own feed. If you cancel your patronage or your credit card doesn’t go through at the beginning of the month, this unique feed will stop working until you become a patron again or fix your credit card with Patreon.

(This probably won’t work with Spotify or Stitcher since they don’t allow premium feeds.)
