What do you listen to podcasts on? AntennaPod is pretty seamless — you can easily search/subscribe in app.

Hopefully this link works for you (copied from the app)

np. Also you need to listen to the Trillbillies return policy episode.

One of the funniest things I have ever heard.

"We gotta take it back"

I'll leave this here...

An RSS page is typically a list of entries the same way somebody's blog site can have a list of blog entries summaries. Each RSS page entry typically has an easy to find MP3 if and only if the RSS page is formatted already. Browsers used to automatically do that. I assume that's (very) rare now. But a typical RSS page is nothing fancy. The problem is that it isn't HTML and it needs different formatting.

I assume that if you google stuff like "how to read an rss page online" there might be a simple way to read any RSS page so you can find the mp3s you want.

RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. Companies like Facebook and Google hate anything that's simple, generic and exists in a non-walled garden reality. The companies worked hard to make RSS obscure because they want to control everything. If they had their druthers - they'd kill it entirely.

Google used to have Google Reader to read RSS but they killed that off about a decade ago.
