Comment on “Wherever you get your podcasts” is a radical statement - Anil Dash

The aggregators don’t sync with each other. The podcast creators upload the new show to each aggregator (or use an app that uploads to multiple).

And they don’t even have to go through an aggregator, it’s just for ease of use and discovery, pretty much every app will let you put in an rss feed url, so podcast could be self hosted only reliant on having an internet connection… well, hell…. Only reliant on having a shared network connection with your target audience

The one paid podcast I listen to does this.
You pay on their site and then you get a personal RSS URL to put in your catcher.
