Bug: Poddr not following redirects?

[fhitchen]

Describe the bug
I subscribed to the "News Agents" podcast and wanted to download a cast. It did not work. I checked the log and found this entry:

[2023-01-06 15:23:32.451] [info] Podcast service :: Getting Podcastfeed using RSS => https://feeds.captivate.fm/the-news-agents/

To Reproduce
Click on the download option.

Expected behavior
The podcast should appear in the Downloads/Poddr directory.

Screenshots
See log file entry above

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Linux
• Version Ubuntu 22.10

Additional context
I tried to download the podcast using the URL mentioned in the log file entry. I noticed that the web server is sending a HTTP 302 status code along with a redirect, I am suspecting that Poddr is not handling redirects. I added the -L flag to curl and was able to successfully retrieve the podcast.

$ curl -v  'https://dax.captivate.fm/74123438-d557-4083-9b9a-1505267c4afb/PINCHER-PILOT-EPISODE-TO-GO-01.mp3?aw_0_1st.showid=c49390b9-6909-4cd3-a974-e270cf686f27&aw_0_1st.episodeid=d2752acb-1101-43fe-bfa7-a2efbc134b5a' -o xxx

Thanks for the detailed investigation 😄
Will take a look when I got the time!

Unfortunately haven't been able to fix this for the 2.1.0 release and probably won't spend the time now the plan is to rewrite Poddr in Flutter.
If the issue comes back at that point feel free to open a new issue again.
