Just realized that Dave is in the woods for the next week or two!
Do any of you know how I can update RSS feeds on Podcast Index without having to request it?
Can I do it with a Podcast Index API call?

@npub1rcn…dw4h
Hey Dave,
Quick question -- Once upon a time, I was serving RSS feeds directly from a public Google Storage Bucket.
I have learned a ton since then (which forced me to learn CloudFlare in 2 weeks to stop a massive bot attack from Hong Kong).
Now, I have my new dynamic RSS endpoints going through CF. However, all my old "storage.googleapis.com/" RSS feed prefixes.
How do I update my feeds in Podcast Index without having to request a change for each one?

2025-06-24 04:49:32 UTC

- reply

Yeah -- so far, so good. It cut down the traffic by 80 percent, and I now have a cache sitting in front of a proxied storage bucket.
It sucked that I had to take a crash course in CDNs but it seems to be have weathered the storm.
Only have the Free Tier at the moment. Going to have to start investigating CloudFlare features to see what else I might need to turn on!
Probably the best lesson to learn when you're small!
🤠☕

2025-06-23 14:28:30 UTC

My server was hit by a bot that keeps downloading every single MP3 file on my server!
So I temporarily shut down the storage bucket to stop the bleeding! $$$
Now, I have to get a CDN in front of the bucket and configure it properly to keep these bots from messing with me.
Damn, the Internet can be downright hostle some days!

The AudioFiction Namespace
Interesting thoughts that are specific to UK Audio Fiction.
I would say that many of these ideas rhyme with existing Podcast Namespace tags or are variations of existing tags.
If you changed the <podcast:medium> tag to "fiction", "audio drama", or "audiobook" then why couldn't these tag ideas be part of a new proposal within the Podcast Namespace?

I have a Breez wallet which was not difficult to get.
Why can't I travel with my own wallet and connect it with my PC 2.0 app (e.g. Podcast Guru, Fountain, TrueFans)? Or use Breez instead of something created by my PC 2.0 host?
What is the connector piece I'm missing that prevents a listener and/or podcaster from using wallets like Breez?
Is Breez not set up to make that work? Or is it something else?

Mmmm... that is a good point—lots of grey areas there. I think I remember Adam and Dave talking about covers on Podcasting 2.0.

Then I went and updated my RSS feed again... and podpinged again.
Gave it about 10 minutes then I resubscribed, downloaded the new episode, and BANG!! It works again!!
Must have cached the initial download and just would not give it up!
Meanwhile, I have to fix my Oncetold bug to make sure the Value Block is included in the RSS! Yeah!

Okay! I keep finding ways to break my Flowgnar and cause Podcast Guru to act weird!

This caused PG to not show the "V4V" logo in the upper right corner.
I fixed the issue, rebuilt the RSS file, and sent out a new Podping. However, no matter what I do I cannot get it to show me the Value Time Splits.
Any ideas on how to force it to refresh?

I removed the MP3 download, cleared the Podcast Guru app cache on my phone, and then re-downloaded the episode -- but that didn't have any impact.
I also fired off a few poppings -- Before and after the fix. That didn't fix the error either.
I assume that Podcast Guru does its duration calcs on the backend and uses my RSS duration calcs for the UI. Is that correct?

Weird thing on Podcast Guru -- I messed up Ep.03 by miscalculation the duration on Track 01.
I fixed it and re-pinged the RSS but Podcast Guru will not refresh the playtime no matter what I update.
However, it doesn't seem to have any impact!
The playtime/duration is wrong in the UI. But it still shows the show art while playing.

Could that be the issue?
