Hi,

I have been using both iTunes Alarm 2.1.2 and Alarm Clock 2.4.5.

I'm trying to configure one of them to let me wake up to a podcast that refreshes itself overnight (the NY Times Front Page podcast). So far, I can set it to open a specific file (e.g., this morning's podcast), but is there a way I can set it to open the latest episode (e.g., tomorrow morning's podcast)?

I've tried putting the podcast in a playlist, but I only drag the file, not the recurring subscription.:\

iTunes updates the podcast automatically each night, downloading the latest one and discarding the older one. Any way to tell the alarm app to play just the latest?

Thanks!:D

Maybe you could make a Automator work flow to open iTunes and refresh the podcast? I am not the best at Automator, but other members know how to use it extremely well. Good luck!
