Each line is the episode exactly as `GET /v1/podcasts/episodes/stream` delivers it with `include=all`. **Available by arrangement.** A day can be resumed with a Range request; a month cannot, so download days when your connection is unreliable. A download is a complete snapshot of its period: replace your copy rather than merging into it. Conditional requests with `If-None-Match` return 304 when nothing changed. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi.json get /v1/podcasts/episodes/archive/download openapi: 3.1.0 info: contact: email: api@particle.pro name: Particle url: https://particle.pro description: >- Podcast API for transcripts, mentions and sponsorship data. 140,000+ podcasts transcribed, diarized and speaker-identified within minutes of airing, about 28,000 episodes a day.
