Subscribing to the Philosophy Talk Podcast Feed Edit
As a Philosophy Talk subscriber, you can sign up to have new episode podcasts delivered directly to your podcast playlist each week. The episodes that you'll receive do NOT reside in Apple Music or Apple Podcasts; instead, they come from the Philosophy Talk website and are delivered to your playlist via your podcast app of choice. So unless you sign up using one of the methods outlined below, simply opening your podcast app and looking for full-length Philosophy Talk episodes just won't work.
