We created this guide to help people who are new to podcasts get started. If you get stuck, email us. We’re happy to help.
One way to listen is right here on our website. From our homepage, click on any of the illustrations to visit an episode page, and simply press play on the audio player. This option works best if you’re sitting at a computer.
If you’d prefer to listen on your phone, many people use the apps that are pre-loaded onto the iPhone and Android.
How to listen on an iPhone or iPad:
1. Open your podcast app. It’s a pre-loaded app called “Podcasts” with a purple icon. (If you’re reading this on your iPhone or iPad right now, just click this link.)
2. Tap on the “search” magnifying glass icon at the bottom of the screen, type in “Criminal” and select it from the list of results.
3. Once on the show’s page, tap the “subscribe” button to have new episodes sent to your phone for free. You can adjust your notifications to receive a message when a new episode arrives.
4. If you would rather try out an episode or two before deciding whether to subscribe, tap on any episode title from the list on the show page. If you have an internet connection, you’ll be able to listen to the episodes.
How to listen on an Android or tablet:
1. Open your podcast app. It’s a pre-loaded app called “Play Music” with an orange-and-yellow icon. (If you’re reading this on your phone or tablet right now, just click this link.)
2. Click on the magnifying glass icon at the top of the screen, search for “Criminal,” and select it from the list of results. You may have to scroll down to find the “Podcasts” search results.
3. Once you’re on the show’s page, tap “subscribe” to have new episodes sent to your phone free.
4. If you would rather listen to an episode or two before deciding whether to subscribe, click on the episode title from the list on the show page. If you have an internet connection, you’ll be able to listen to the episodes.
