  • Different posting schedule on iheart and youtube
    I normally listen to the episodes on iheart.com, but to look up some old episodes I checked the youtube channel and found that there were episodes posted, which did not appear in the list of the current episodes on the iheart website. Does anybody know if these are old episodes or is robert pumping out new episodes like there is no tomorrow? Source: about 1 year ago
  • I'm catching up with ATWYRM
    Personally I prefer spotify, but you can listen to itr on iheart.com or apple podcasts as well. They should be the very first results if you google the name :). Source: about 1 year ago
  • Problems with Spotify?
    I am having the exact same issue with iheart.com. Source: over 2 years ago
  • After the revolution podcast not available in the UK?
    Are you trying to listen to it on iheart.com? I used to be able to listen to stuff on there, but now it won't let me (UK). Apple podcasts, for eg, still works though. Source: almost 3 years ago
  • Active Shooter at Fort Detrick
    As far as radio apps go, iHeartRadio is the absolute *WORST*. Put uBlock Origin on your browser, browse to iheart.com and watch the 'blocked' counter soar. Source: about 3 years ago
