Cannot install Python 2 kernel in Jupyter Notebook

I am trying to use a Python program written for Python 2.7. I am using a Macbook Pro running Catalina. The program is here: https://github.com/geoss/censumander. The program has two Jupyter Notebooks to practice with. I have Anaconda 4.9.2 installed and pip 20.2.4. When I open Jupyter Notebook it defaults to Python 3 and has no kernel option to change to Python 2. I have used the guide here to try to install the Python 2 kernel: https://ipython.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install/kernel_install.html.

When I run

python2 -m pip install ipykernel

I get back

Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement ipykernel (from versions: )

No matching distribution found for ipykernel.

I am pretty new to using Python (typically use R) and am trying to get the hang of stuff like this, so apologies if the answer here is obvious. I've tried the solutions here to no avail: Jupyter notebook with Python 2 and Python3 Kernel

I have also tried the solutions here: Jupyter Notebook - install python 2. The first solution

$ python2 /path/to/jupyter-notebook

is unclear to me as I don't understand to what file path the code points (for jupyter_notebook). (This is likely a consequence of my noobiness.)

The second,

conda create -n ipykernel_py2 python=2 ipykernelconda activate ipykernel_py2    python -m ipykernel install --user

triggers the following traceback after the third line:

Thanks, all.
