- STOP “YOU MIGHT ALSO LIKE” PODCAST RECOMMENDATIONS PETE!!!!!
More and more podcasts are adding this incredibly inconsiderate and annoying feature that adds a bunch of unsubscribed podcasts to my feed which messes up podcast playlists I carefully selected and curated. It makes my feed a mess, and I’m unsubscribing from any podcasts that causes Oprah to autoplay.
Stop this nonsense and I’ll give it 5 stars.

Love the pod, but why are bonus “you might also like” podcasts that have nothing to do with the Big 12 or my interests showing up in the episode list? Don’t think it’s a setting issue on my phone. Hopefully you didn’t sell out for advertising revenue.
