search result for keyword podcast is:
https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=Podcast
i think, only one of the linked pages do exist, still.

maybe it would be better tolink to this page?

Actually, I think the intent of those two pages is different. The podcast page was for people who want to listen to books using a podcast app while the Community podcasts are just for downloading and listening to those.

I'll work on that first page and see if the links can be updated and if not will remove the dead ones. :)

So I've revised this wiki page. Hopefully it is better now. The old LV podcasts still exist, but no new ones have been added in a number of years. I've tried to update the directions for downloading books from the catalog as RSS feeds to use in podcast format.

oh, i realize, i just don't know enough of podcasts-universe, too.
i remember, that a podcast programme can open some urls, which my browser can't..

despite this, may i give two feedbacks?
"however, this is no longer There is more information on the podcast page of the main LibriVox site."
1. the dot is missing after longer.
2. this linked podcast page (with more informations :-D) gives me a 404.

i honestly think you have added value to this page, now i seem to understand more of it.
thank you!
cheers

Thanks schrm.

I fixed the sentence that I had left hanging and also the podcast page link, which now works.

Glad the changes were helpful!
