Can I share an updating podcast archive via torrent file?

Given the case I produce podcasts, and my followers want to have the full collection on local storage: I would create a torrent file for the folder with all the audio files.

Now can I add new podcast files to the folder, so my followers (running a torrent client) can automatically download it to their hard disk - via the same old torrent file?

No, that's not possible with BitTorrent.

A better solution would be to use the proprietary program Resilio Sync (formerly BitTorrent Sync).
or the open source project Syncthing.

Thank you so much. Resilio Sync & Syncthing seem to be the right solution.
