### `find_podcasts` (~492 tokens)

Find podcasts and their hosts

Find podcasts on a topic, or read podcasts you name, and return one row per show: host, the owner name and email the show publishes in its own RSS feed, episode count, latest episode, episodes in the last 90 days, an active flag, the share of episodes that name a guest, recent guest names read from episode titles or podcast:person tags, companies named beside guests, and the contact and be a guest pages on the show website. Give topic (for example B2B sales) to search the Apple Podcasts catalog, or podcast_urls with Apple Podcasts links or RSS feed URLs. Filters: active_within_days, min_episodes, guest_shows_only. A show whose feed cannot be read comes back free with Apple catalog fields only. A run that does not succeed is returned as an error with its run ID. Read-only; requires an APIFY_TOKEN; Apify charges per podcast row returned.

- `max_charge_usd` (string): Optional. The run stops before any row that would take its charges over this amount.
- `max_podcasts` (string): Shows per topic, 1 to 200. Each show with its feed read is billed. Default 25.

### What licence is the com.mambabuilt/mcp-podcast-guest-host-finder server under?

VerifyMCP ran 15 checks on com.mambabuilt/mcp-podcast-guest-host-finder, covering Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health, Source repository and 11 more. One item could not be completed, a gap on our side rather than a finding about com.mambabuilt/mcp-podcast-guest-host-finder: Malware scan. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to an npm package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
