How this service works
Podcast search across the Apple Podcasts directory (iTunes Search API): podcast title, publisher, episode count, genres, latest episode date, explicit flag, RSS feed URL, artwork and Apple Podcasts link, for a search term and optional country store.
Output
Returns a JSON object with a count of results, the original query, source URL, country code, a checkedAt timestamp, and an array of podcast objects each containing: numeric ID, title, publisher, genres array, primary genre, episode count, explicit flag, latest episode date, artwork image URL (600x600), RSS feed URL, and Apple Podcasts deep link URL.
Example use cases
Discover tech podcasts by topic
“Search Apple Podcasts for podcasts about artificial intelligence — show me up to 10 results from the US store with their publisher names, episode counts, and RSS feed links.”
Find podcast RSS feed for automation
“I need the RSS feed URL for TechCrunch's podcast — can you search the Apple Podcasts directory for 'TechCrunch' and pull the feed details?”
Explore podcasts in a foreign market
“Search the UK Apple Podcasts store for business podcasts and give me the top 5 results, including their genres, artwork, and whether they're marked explicit.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.fadeandco.workers.dev/api/dev/podchaser?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to search the Apple Podcasts directory specifically — especially to retrieve RSS feed URLs, episode counts, artwork, or Apple Podcasts deep links for a given topic or show name. Prefer this over generic web search when you need structured podcast metadata from Apple's catalog. Best for podcast discovery, feed aggregation, and enriching podcast-related data pipelines.
Side effects
- Missing required 'q' parameter returns an error
- Search term longer than 100 characters rejected
- Invalid country code may return empty results or fall back to US store
- limit values outside 1–20 may be clamped or rejected
- iTunes Search API unavailable causes upstream failure
- No matching podcasts returns count:0 and empty podcasts array
