I like In Our Time and wanted to put all the episodes on a memory stick so I could listen to them when I wanted.

So, I wrote a Python script to do it.

It is here if anyone is interested.

I have loads of others for managing various downloads, like exam papers, revision exercises and what not.

The code is not very long and fairly simple, perhaps a decent sort of first python project if you are interested in learning it.

It is python 2.7 and uses requests library for internet access.

Dammit I thought this was going to be a link to download all the Python Episodes
In reply to balmybaldwin:

Well, not quite, you have to use my python script to do it, which involves installing python and the requests library first. Give it a go!

Love IOT, and always take them on expedition with me. They are great for those long tent nights when you can't sleep....but haven't a clue what you're on about. I just download them without snakes
