Thanks again to @Quenti for mentioning the Castopod Index, designed to simplify podcast discovery by language and category. While Occitan podcasts aren't listed yet, Castopod aims to help all languages thrive in podcasting.

@Quenti explains how a true podcast is defined by its RSS feed, making it accessible through any app. This decentralized nature gives creators freedom from platform restrictions and gives listeners control over how they access content.

Podcasts can connect people globally, allowing creators to share their stories in any language. This is a powerful way to ensure even less spoken languages, like Occitan, get a chance to be heard!

Thank you @Quenti for your in-depth article on podcasting and how it promotes language diversity! Podcasting is not just for entertainment; it’s a platform to broadcast culture, heritage, and voices that might otherwise be lost.
