NOTE: NO LONGER MAINTAINED.
While this project is somewhat useless now that Diane Rehm doesn't do a daily show anymore, back when she broadcasted daily, The Diane Rehm Show's website did not let you download episodes (easily) and their podcast feed was frequently stale.
This app was designed to let you download the episodes directly to your computer rather than having to listen to them on the website or via the podcast feed.
Now that Diane Rehm does a once weekly podcast, this app's utility has largely faded, so it isn't likely anyone will get much use out of this app anymore, but hey, if for whatever reason you want to download it, play with it, and/or hack on the source code… here you go. Enjoy.
And while you're at it, you might also want to check out the much more useful successor app The 1A Downloader.
First install Node.js and git.
Then:
git clone https://github.com/kethinov/DianeRehmDownloader.git
cd DianeRehmDownloader
npm i
electron .
Builds are constructed with electron-packager.
Be sure to have Node.js and git installed. The build commands presume bash and zip are installed as well, so a Linux or Mac build environment is recommended, although it's probably possible to get a sane build environment set up in Windows too.
Set up the repo:
git clone https://github.com/kethinov/DianeRehmDownloader.git
cd DianeRehmDownloader
npm i
