For ripping the actual audio stream I used this on a 800+ song playlist, took over 24 hours but still worked:

Can you try ripping a Joe Rogan episode with your setup? His podcast introduces ads even if you pay and while yt-dlp worked for a while now they are encrypting with Widevine (for supposedly his podcast only).

Here is a link to an episode to test: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0DsunsN5MGI0CWwvuaxZdt

To date I have not found a way to rip this other than recording the episode on Desktop. The main use case for me is that when I am driving, I hate when it randomly stops the podcast to talk about some underwear brand and it is hard to skip and not cause an accident. :)

SidifySpotifyMusic. Good enough that I pay for a license.

Does this work for podcasts? Would you be able to try ripping a Joe Rogan episode with this app to test? They use widewine and so it breaks yt-dlp. They play ads even if you pay for a subscription. Here is an example link: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0DsunsN5MGI0CWwvuaxZdt
