October 12, 2022352. Stop Saying Brand Names in Your Podcast! Do These 5 Things Instead
We use many services in the process of podcasting and engaging our audiences, like Patreon, Buy Me a Coffee, SpeakPipe, and more. But saying these brand names in your podcast can overwhelm or confuse your audience and—even worse—break their ability to properly engage with your podcast!

October 05, 2022351. How Proxies and iOS 14.5 Affect Your Podcast
In summer 2021, iOS 14.5 introduced a major change to Apple Podcasts with implications many podcasters may still not realize. With that update, your audience on Apple Podcasts is no longer getting your podcast directly from your RSS feed, but from a proxy. And that has some potentially bad implications!
Please share this episode from your podcast app or https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/proxies
What is a proxy?
• Feedburner: https://feedburner.google.com
• Podcast Mirror: https://podcastmirror.com
Why use a feed proxy?
• Why you may NOT want to host your own podcast RSS feed: https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/why-you-may-not-want-to-host-your-own-podcast-rss-feed/
What did iOS 14.5 change?
• How many podcasts are in Apple Podcasts? https://podcastindustryinsights.com/apple-podcasts-statistics/
The potentially dark side of Apple's (or any app's) own feed proxy
But would Apple actually use this power?
• Kicked from Apple Podcasts? What Happens When You Keyword-Stuff Podcast Tags: https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/kicked-from-apple-podcasts-what-happens-when-you-keyword-stuff-podcast-tags-tap334/
• Apple Podcasts Connect: https://podcastsconnect.apple.com
Spotify, Stitcher, and some others also use their own feed proxies
Hello, censorship?
• China censors censorship: https://share.america.gov/in-china-you-cant-say-these-words/
Somewhat similar to Netflix, Amazon Prime, and such
A technical aside for and explicit episodes
Podcasting 2.0 provides better solutions!
