Bug: Poddr not following redirects?
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:

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
