What it does
Fireside hosts episodes and artwork and provides feed, analytics, website and submission tools.
Publish episode notes, chapters, transcripts and season information, then distribute the RSS feed and subscribe page. A seasonal show can use the separate hiatus option to keep existing episodes online between production periods instead of paying for the same active publishing routine.
Unlimited episodes does not remove bandwidth or collaboration limits. Starter lists one show, 500 GB monthly bandwidth and two collaborators; Standard raises those to 1 TB and five collaborators, while Professional lists two shows, 5 TB and ten collaborators. A free account and 14-day trial help inspect the dashboard, but ongoing hosting uses a paid plan.
