WordPress now has a handy little feature that allows me to convert blog posts to podcasts via Anchor.fm. So that’s what I’ve been doing. I now have two or three episodes up there, read by a very soothing and high-quality robot voice.
The main reason I’ve gone with this feature is because I’m going to be posting my series on the Russian Civil War soon – Battle for Red October – and in form this series is a lot more like a podcast than a blog.
Sometimes it takes a little while for a new post to appear on Spotify, Google Podcasts, etc.
Here’s the Google Podcasts link – currently there’s one episode up there. Apologies for the minor formatting issues you’ll find there. No big deal, we’re finding our feet here.
Finally, uploading these as podcast episodes has involved publishing temporary ‘audio version’ posts on the blog – meaning that my subscribers will probably have received 3 or 4 New Episode notifications in one hour, all of which are now dead links. Due to the format I can’t see a way around doing that.
Anyway, here are the episodes that are up so far. Enjoy!
