Can I search for episodes in specific languages or regions?

Yes. The `search` tool allows you to filter results by `language` and `region` (e.g., 'us', 'gb', 'br') to find content tailored to specific audiences.

How do I retrieve the full metadata for a specific podcast episode?

Use the `get_episode` tool with the unique Episode ID. You can also set `show_transcript` to '1' if your Listen Notes plan supports transcripts.

Is it possible to look up multiple podcasts at once?

Yes, use the `batch_podcasts` tool. You can provide a comma-separated list of IDs, iTunes IDs, or RSS URLs to fetch metadata for multiple shows in a single request.
