How to set up for a podcast?

[ScottBurger]

Is there a guide to set up a post for automatically updating a podcast RSS? If I set a file: https://filename.mp3 in the _post yaml, what else would I need to do to have the mp3 file show up in the feed.xml file? Is it as simple as just adding a section in the feed.xml for the file key in the yaml of the post?

So according to Apple's documentation, there are some required fields needed in an .xml file for it to be recognized as a podcast vs a normal blog .xml feed.

The minimum required are:

• title
• description
• itunes:image
• language
• itunes:category
• itunes:explicit

You'll also need the xmlns:itunes="http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd" bit in the rss version tag to have the itunes-specific xml tags be included properly.

I have a working example here that illustrates what fields to add and where.
