I've been learning about the Podcasting 2.0 movement lately. Its a response to the closed nature of the podcasting ecosystem cultivated by big tech over the last couple of decades. RSS, the original "feed", got an upgrade in 2020 that included a new set of tags that extends the fuctionality of podcasts within applications. These new tags enable chapters, transcripts, payment via bitcoin, and more.

I finally got around to setting up a Castopod instance this week to migrate over from Soundcloud a short podcast series I produced in college. I added the RSS feed to the Podcast Index and included a chapter. json file to test out the new features. Enjoy my amatuer podcast where uplift the good work youth organizers are doing for their communities and keep an eye our for more episodes.
