I recommend all of these, but it's not a real summary. I've hopped around to many different apps since stitcher died. I like Antenna pod, but I switched to Podverse for a little bit before coming back to Antenna Pod. Iirc, Podverse did the queues better, but only if they had properly added support for the specific podcast. I lik Audio fiction, which means I'm constantly looking for new shows. So I encountered a lot that weren't fully supported yet, got frustrated and switched back to Antenna Pod. I've gotten into the habit now of adding a podcast to the queue season by season, and it works ok.
And bonus, if you like Audio fiction, follow https://www.theend.fyi/ to find recommendations. It's great!
The Dollop is an American history podcast. Each week...
Both that and Behind the Bastards are podcasts on history stuff. Dollop trends more towards comedy while reading about terrible things to lighten the mood. Dave reads to Gareth (most of the time) who hasn't heard the thing before, and plays off his reactions.
Love that app, but can't get it to resume my podcast when I get in the car. Music works fine, the old Google podcasts worked fine, but I've never gotten it to work with antenna pod.
Mine works. Sometimes it gives me a "recommended" podcast from my list instead of what I was listening to, but I just enter the app and go to queue and select th one at the top.
Usually just binge an older podcast. I already completed HoP and HoP: Indian, Africana and Chinese, and now I'm with Citations Needed. Philosophy This only play when I accidentally start an episode lol.
It's heavily affected by the fact that I used to listen to After the Revolution to fall asleep (in a good way! It's a great book and Robert Evans' voice is soothing IMO), but here's mine:
Love the self hosted podcast, they talk about various experiences they've had (be it good, or bad) while trying to stop relying on big tech companies. They also try to bring projects to the spotlight and help people find cool openscource solutions. They get some fun guests in there as well.
They went to a subscription model for using the desktop app... If we could buy it at once as it was possible before I wouldn't even be looking for alternatives, but I despise subscriptions.
Funnily enough (although I haven't looked thoroughly) I couldn't find a way for this yet 🏴☠️
I thought I could synchronize what I was listening to and where I stopped with gpodder.net but this never worked because I never understood how to use it, even though I logged in on both desktop and phone, so I had to give up the idea of listening on the desktop and I only listen on the phone. If I am at home I sometimes connect to a Bluetooth speaker to have a nicer experience.
I ended up using the nextcloud gpodder sync app, works a treat, there's even a nextcloud app for listening to podcasts in your browser, so I use that for desktop use.
