I'm loving this app! As a new podcaster (Hell Yeah Man) it's helped me connect with listeners and other creators. Such a fun social experience with solid updates and communication. Great for both listeners and podcast creators. They added a "recommend" feature which I just love, and it's helped me discover shows I may not have before. Excited to be in on the ground floor of this app!

Unfortunately, this app has a LOT of issues playing content. Very frequently, it would "freeze" while I'm listening to an episode - and when this happens, I have to either skip parts of it or abandon the whole episode. This happens so often that I'm always surprised when I can actually listen to an entire episode without issue. I never had any issues listening to any podcast when I was using Stitcher, which sadly no longer exists. Please fix Goodpods 🙏
