[…] being able to say, "wherever you get your podcasts" is a radical statement. Because what it represents is the triumph of exactly the kind of technology that's supposed to be impossible: open, empowering tech that's not owned by any one company, that can't be controlled by any one company, and that allows people to have ownership over their work and their relationship with their audience.

What podcasting holds in the promise of its open format is the proof that an open web can still thrive and be relevant, that it can inspire new systems that are similarly open to take root and grow.

AntennaPod (OpenSource) and I subscribe to RSS feeds. How else would you do it? Spotify? That crap can't even reliably store where I paused last time.

Consuming podcadts through Spotify is a wild concept.
