- Scroll down past Upcoming Shows, Beats 1 on Demand (a list of previous episodes of currently running shows), Featured Videos and Featured Playlists, and you'll eventually get to the Archive section.
- Tap a show you like the look of to view a full episode archive.

Tap an episode to start listening, or keep scrolling and below the episode list you'll often also see links to all the playlists featured in the show's lifetime -- to add one to your library, simply tap the +Add button.
