Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. BBC's Learning English podcasts are not properly processed

Describe the solution you'd like improve the "podcast parsing" features. I'd like to parse BBC's Learning English podcasts (https://www.bbc.co.uk/learningenglish/english/podcasts), as well as their RSS contents (https://www.bbc.co.uk/learningenglish/english/), since their application stopped working by the end of last year.

Describe alternatives you've considered Using AntennaPod

Additional context There is some development done on this, see https://github.com/mdewilde/podcast-parser/tree/master.

Compared to AntennaPod, Handy's features would be welcome: BBCs "learning" sites have complementary text to follow the audio, and other podcast programs do not show those contents. Using Mobilizer features might allow processing HTML to filter text and display audio links as attachments.

that's strange, I could open both, either in firefox or in Chrome (BBC's Learning English podcasts (https://www.bbc.co.uk/learningenglish/english/podcasts), as well as their RSS contents (https://www.bbc.co.uk/learningenglish/english/))
