Episode Details

Making a private podcast feed is easy; keeping it private is where things fall apart. This episode walks the whole ramp — from paid hosts like Transistor and Castos that hand each subscriber a tokenized feed address, down to a storage bucket and a Worker that signs every enclosure on the fly. Along the way: why "private, not secure" is the honest label, why pre-signed URLs go stale in seven days, why a password in the URL is an obscure URL with extra steps, and why podcast apps can't send the custom headers Cloudflare Access wants. Also, Dorothy calls in with a recipe for unbuttered bread. Episode 6183 — myweirdprompts.com/n/6183 (permanent short link: myweirdprompts.com/027893)
