I understand the audiobook server, but what’s the use case for the podcast part? You replicate a podcast on your own server, in case the original goes away?

I mirror all my podcasts locally as shows do disappear before I listen to them. Wondery has a ton of shows that if you miss the few week window, they're being a wondery+ paywall.

Dan Carlin's Hardcore History do this too.

When I setup Audiobookshelf a week ago I also bought the rest of his entire collection from his site, getting a complete library for his show.
