Subscribing to a podcast means that new episodes appear on your device automatically, saving you the trouble of finding and downloading them one by one. Christmas Past releases episodes every few days during the Christmas season, so subscribing is a great way to make sure you never miss one.
Whether you listen to podcasts on your computer, phone, tablet, smart speaker, or even your TV or car, you can easily subscribe to Christmas Past any time. This page should help you if you’re new to podcasts and subscribing.
How to subscribe
You listen to podcasts through a podcast app. If you’re on a desktop computer, that app may be something like iTunes or Spotify. On a phone, it could be Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Play, Overcast, or something else. Different apps are available for Apple or Android devices, and Windows, Mac, or Linux computers. If an app didn’t come pre-installed on your device, simply Google “podcast app,” plus the name of your device to find one to download.
