Set Up The Podcast Feed
As part of the program, you have exclusive access to course materials via a private podcast RSS feed. This is simple to set up and you should be able to add the feed to:
- Apple Podcasts
- Google Podcasts
- Pocket Casts
- Overcast
- Castbox
- Breaker
- Podcast Addict
- Downcast
Your unique private feed is:
https://serenityisland.me/feed/
This feed is unique to you and as long as you are a member you can use it to access the private feed. No one else can see it on this page (including me), so you need to make a little tweak to turn it into a podcast feed...
(NOTE: to get your private podcast feed you will need to add /course/ after /feed/)
It should look SIMILAR TO (but not exactly the same as) this: "https://serenityisland.me/feed/course/?wpmfeedkey=7;5aef4334976210591b35qm744289bleb6"
Copy your private podcast link and paste it where you listen to podcasts. You will need to use your Serenity Island login details to access it.
Apple Podcasts
On the mobile OS app you will find the link to 'Add a Show by URL...' under the Edit button on the Library tab.
On the Mac desktop you will find this option under 'File' on the top menu. Add the link, and then you'll be asked for your SerenityIsland.me username and password.
Once you add them you should have full access to the feed.
Pocket Casts
- You need to create a new url using your Haven credentials. It will look like this: https://username:password@theUrlOfTheFeedWithoutTheHttpBit
- For example (you need to change the bits in red):
https://YourUsername:YourPassword@serenityisland.me/feed/course/?wpmfeedkey=7;85;da307262a45b15a0a3b3c824e9f5896a
- Then add that link to this page: https://www.pocketcasts.com/submit/ (select ‘private’) - this will give you a new url that looks something like: https://pca.st/private/5c76df90-e359-0829-a839-0ped82734db9
- You can then add that to the Pocket Casts app and it should work!
