That's possible. You can open a channel to the podcastindex node and send all sats out of this channel (e.g. by spending them) This increases your receiving capacity of this channel. As a consequence you have a channel to a custom node partner with receiving capacity.
But that's a bit of work. That's why we added LSPs that sell you channels and increase your receiving capacity. It works in a few clicks or can even be automated in your Hub.
