In addition to announcing sound search and AI-generated conversation radio today, YouTube Music is rolling out “Mark as played” for podcasts.

    Having to maintain a plethora of brands with their own unique podcasts, I really do hate using YouTube podcasts. It is very unfriendly to brand managers.

    Damn, the year is 2024. Google has finally implemented another absolutely basic podcasting functionality.

    At this rate, by 2035, it might become a usable app.

        I don’t understand why you wouldn’t use an app specifically for podcasts with all the necessary functionality already built in.

          Personally, it never occurred to me. I had been using Google Podcasts and even before they announced it was EOL, it was getting annoying.

          Spotify was there, had everything, so I used it. They keep putting their prices up and I am ready to leave.

          What podcast app would you recommend?
