What can be done to get a functioning way to listen to the level 1 news outside youtube? It’s so frustrating the feed is still broken after months, if not a year at this point.
You can plug the (any) Youtube channel into an RSS reader using the channel ID.
https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=UC4w1YQAJMWOz4qtxinq55LQ
Using youtube-dl, you can also extract audio from a YouTube video, convert it to MP3 and (optionally) embed the thumbnail.
youtube-dl -x --embed-thumbnail --audio-format mp3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRPUIzcBgwE
Combine all of these things with an RSS reader capable of executing scripts on new items, and you’ve just rolled your own Level1Techs podcast app.
Bonus points: Works for all of YouTube.

Patreon RSS feed also works ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
That may be why the public one stopped, makes sense, thanks
Nah the public one stopped because YouTube is a b**ch to work with.
