    1. Hi there.
      For those wishing to download episodes, we would prefer that you subscribed to the podcast itself. This is straightforward on an iPhone or any Android device.
      All you do is search the iTunes Store or the Google Play store for Northpod Law.
      You can download episodes through there.

      Of course, some of our listeners are wanting to download to their PCs. That's easy too.

      On the link to the audio (like in this post where it says, "The Audio is right Here", right click your mouse and then select Save Link As... Then just choose where to download and it's done.

      Let me know if that doesn't work out for you and I'll try to assist further.

      Ben
      Northpod Law

      p.s. - thanks for listening to our show!
