I wouldn’t think it would be worth the effort in syncing the downloaded files - a podcast is literally just a list of download URLs with some metadata, probably simpler to just re-download the file. I guess I could see that being a problem if you are on a very restrictive internet plan, but podcast files episodes are typically quite small
Well the reason I ask that, probably annoyingly, is because I listen to them on Rhythmbox when I’m at home. So I was hoping there would be an easy way to just sync it all up to my phone, but I’m guessing there’s not really a way after looking through the suggestions here and searching google for solutions. I’ll give the suggestions made here a go and if I can’t get it to work properly, I can always just move the files over and remember what episode I am on. (This podcast is 200+ episodes and 20GBs in size.)

I think (?) AudioBookShelf will do this?
Antennapod supports syncing with podder.net and gpoddersync
So this can support syncing the files that Rhythmbox downloads to my android device? Or does it work another way?
Sorry, this is my first time mucking about with podcast stuff outside listening on youtube/spotify.
