I am interested in capturing MyFellowKansans; this is a podcast site following Governor Laura Kelley of Kansas. I want to crawl each episode as an individual seed under one collection but my URLs are not accepted. Has anyone had successful crawls of podcast sites? Thank you.

  It looks like the MP3 files are directly linked in the HTML which is good:

  <a href="https://cpa.ds.npr.org/kcur/audio/2018/12/121218_MFKLive_Roundtable.mp3" title="" class="jp-play"></a>

  But note that they are hosted on a different hostname cpa.ds.npr.org instead of www.kcur.org. I wonder if it will help if you configure your crawl to follow links to that other hostname?
