It provides something Ian canโt - or wonโt - do: a publicly accessible RSS feed that works in whichever podcast player you prefer.

My cobbled together robot servant has now been tasked with checking the Friday morning email and updating the feed automatically.
In the last six hours, driven by nothing more than a desire to listen to Striking 13 in the podcast player of my choice while walking to Tesco on a Friday, I used that system, and, somewhat ironically given this weekโs theme, AI. Extracting the audio links, building the feed, and publishing it.
Just before Christmas I spent the best part of two weeks building a small system for myself.
It has since gathered tens of rather indifferent users.
An RSS 2.0 feed is, almost invisible. If audio exists publicly on the internet and doesnโt require a sign-in, you can create a feed from it.
For years Iโve wanted a simple way to curate podcast feeds. One of the beauties of these technologies, designed in a more open era of the internet, perfected without the slightest thought for monetisation.
Itโs a thoughtful, intelligent piece of writing each week. Insightful, well-considered, and sprinkled with comic vignettes of a man half-negotiating a midlife crisis while trying to make sense of a modern world he has little interest in โ and perhaps even less ability to navigate.
Whether out of inability or indifference, the rather wonderful Striking 13 podcast by Ian Dunt @iandunt.bsky.social seems โ as far as I can tell โ to be available only on Spotify, via a direct link from the Friday morning email, or through Substack.
Pay your fucking taxes!
Can you send me a project with a minimal example and Iโll take a look

We talk a lot about the special players weโve bought, the diamonds in the rough. But should we now start talking about RLB as a special manager? Far from the finished article but he learns so much from every game, could he take us (in a season or 3) to unimaginable heights?
