I just got a month to listen to Blowback, and looked around at some of the other stuff. Like half of it if Steven Pinker/Malcolm Gladwell/Sorkin garbage. There are a bunch of garbage like this on there just doing sinophobia and anti-communism.
Glad Blowback made it on, it's the one light in a sea of terrible liberal garbage.
Stitcher as an app is good for podcast listening. I've never bothered with premium Stitcher, though.
If you aren't using it for premium, if recommend Antenna Pod. It's open source and has time of good automation features (as well as gpodder integration so you can sync up over different devices)
I'll take a look! Right now I've got 3 different podcast apps because of stupid exclusives.
