There are still platform exclusive podcasts, like on Spotify, but they don't seem too prevalent. Podcasters seem to make most of their dough either through advertising sections, or having supporter exclusive feeds.
I wonder if podcast piracy is a thing.
I don’t know if this counts, but I have the Waking Up podcast subscriber RSS feed, just googled for it. That said, Im pretty sure if you write an email to Harris stating you can’t afford it right now but would like to listen anyway, you will get it free anyway. At least the app is like that, but IIRC that has been his method for the podcast too.
