Listening

Where can I listen to KAP podcasts?
  1. You can use our website or go to the “Listen in Your Favorite App” page of the podcast you would like to listen to. There, you can find links to the podcast on many platforms.
  2. If you cannot find your preferred podcast app, you can search for the title of the podcast in that app (I suggest copying and pasting the podcast’s title from our website to avoid typos).
  3. If you still cannot find the podcast, check if the app has an option to add a custom podcast directly (try looking up “add podcast RSS feed on [your chosen app]”). Then, go back to “Listen in Your Favorite App,” copy the link entitled “RSS Feed,” and follow the directions for your app. Doing this allows you to listen to the podcast even though it is not listed in the app (it will still automatically update). As a note, not all apps have this option.
  4. If the platform does not have the RSS Feed option or rejects the link, you can contact me, as I may be able to submit it to your app. If I do not have the ability to do so, I am very sorry, and you can listen on our website or a different app (I highly recommend Pocket Casts).

NOTE: We do not list our shows on Spotify or YouTube Music. For more info on that, you can scroll down to the questions entitled, “Why can’t I listen to KAP podcasts on Spotify?” and “Why can’t I listen to KAP podcasts on YouTube Music?”

Why can’t I listen to KAP podcasts on Spotify?

What Spotify is doing in podcasting—tracking users, trying to gain a monopoly on the industry, and going against “open” podcasting—does not align with Kingdom: Animalia Podcasts’ views. If it is the main app you use for listening to podcasts, I apologize for the inconvenience, and you can listen on our website or a different app (I highly recommend Pocket Casts). Our podcasts are currently on all of the other major podcast apps, such as Apple Podcasts, Pocket Casts, and Overcast. If you would like links to such platforms, you can head over to the “Listen in Your Favorite App” page of the podcast you would like to listen to.

Here are two episodes of the podcast Buzzcast that are the reason I removed our shows:

Individual Podcasts

How do I submit an animal, Animalia Fake! category, or riddle guess to Kingdom: Animalia - A Zoology Podcast for Kids?

You can send an email to animals@kapods.org or go to the contact page and use the form entitled “Kingdom: Animalia - A Zoology Podcast for Kids.”

How do I get early access to episodes of Where Are the Chickadee Brothers?

To get one-week-early access to all episodes of Where Are the Chickadee Brothers?, you can sign up for Kingdom: Animalia Podcasts Plus at the Subspecies tier ($4/month) or higher at kapods.org/support. It really helps us out.

If that is not an option for you at this time, you can still get all episodes completely free.

Support and Sharing

How can I share KAP podcasts with people (and birds) I know?

Thank you for wanting to share our podcasts! It helps us more than you might think.

We suggest sending them the link to the podcast’s main page, which has links to most places to listen, or the Podcasts page, which has links to all of our podcasts. This way you don’t have to worry about which app they use.

How to find one of our shows on our website:

  1. Go to the Podcasts page of our website.
  2. Click on the podcast you would like to share.
  3. Share the link to the page it brings you to.

If you would like to share all of our podcasts, you can simply share the Podcasts or Home page.

Thanks again for the outreach!

How can I support the making of KAP podcasts?

Thank you for considering supporting Kingdom: Animalia Podcasts! It really means a lot to me.

You can support us (really me, Devon) by simply sharing one or more of our shows with someone you think might enjoy them! Info on how to share our podcasts is in the section above.

You don’t have to, but if you want to go the extra mile, you can support us by signing up for Kingdom: Animalia Podcasts Plus at the “Subspecies” tier ($4/month) or higher at kapods.org/support. That also comes with perks like one-week-early access to Where Are the Chickadee Brothers?, second guesses to Kingdom: Animalia riddles, and behind-the-scenes content.
