Original n8n.io sourceThis workflow builds a valid RSS feed (which is an XML feed under the hood) for ARD Audiothek podcasts. This allows you to subscribe to such podcasts using your favourite podcatcher without using the ARD Audiothek app.
The example builds a feed for Kalk & Welk, but the workflow can be easily adjusted by providing another podcast URL on the Get overview page HTTP Request node.
To subscribe to the feed, active your n8n workflow and then use the Production URL from the intitial Feed Webhook node in your podcatcher.
I've tested the resulting feed using Pocket Casts...
...and Miniflux:
When using Miniflux, you can add your feed via this page to your account. Make sure you select Private when doing so to avoid sharing your n8n instance with the world.
The resulting feed passes the W3C Feed Validation Service:
The workflow can also be used as a foundation to free other podcasts from propriertary big media platforms, though not all of them will be as simple to deal with as the ARD Audiothek.

Use the JSON export at /data/workflows/1799/1799.json as the source template for this automation.
Open n8n, import the downloaded JSON, and review each node before activating the workflow.
Replace placeholder credentials, API keys, webhook URLs, account IDs, and environment-specific values with your own settings.
Run the workflow manually or in a staging workspace, inspect node output, and confirm downstream systems receive the expected data.
Enable the workflow only after testing, then monitor executions, errors, and rate limits during the first production runs.
Review imported nodes carefully before activation. This catalog entry is intended to help you inspect the workflow structure, understand required services, and find related templates faster.
Node names, credentials, schedules, webhook paths, and external service limits may need adjustment for your workspace.

Review the workflow JSON, configure any required credentials in n8n, and test the automation in a safe workspace before using it in production.
Yes. Use the block-by-block analysis and the downloadable JSON to inspect each node, then adjust credentials, prompts, schedules, filters, or destinations for your Miscellaneous use case.
