What podcast player do you use?
I like using Pocketcasts but it's the only one I've used so I can't compare to others - this article does a good job of that though: https://www.theend.fyi/article/choosing-the-best-fiction-podcast-app-a-guide-for-new-listeners More on reddit.com

January 10, 2025What Podcast Player Do You Recommend and Why?
Pocketcasts is my long-time favorite. I appreciate the way podcasts can be ordered manually and organized into folders, and the fact that show listings are visually different from episode listings. The ability to skip the first or last x minutes is must have. Every so often I try something else but always come back. More on reddit.com

I’ve used the IOS Podcasts player for years and never really liked it and the way it handles the organisation of episodes, etc.
Is there a better option out there?

r/audiodrama on Reddit: What Podcast Player Do You Recommend and Why?
January 12, 2025 -
Someone told me to stop using Audible and use a "real podcatcher". I've never considered Audible anything special, it was just the path of least resistance since it's where I also have my books. Plus they have some awesome Audible only originals.
What do you all recommend? I'm on a Mac so I of course have access to Apple Podcasts. It's nice enough but does not blow me away.
I also have Pocketcasts which is better as far as being able to create my own categories and also choose grid or list view, but I find the UI archaic. I subscribe to way too much software as it is, so I really don't want to use a paid subscription service unless there is some hella intriguing advantage to doing so, however I am more than happy to pay for a lifetime license.
Thanks!

I use Antennapod, but I think it's an Android only app. Someone looking for an Antennapod replacement for IPhone on here was recommended RssRadio, so I suggest you check that out. But if Audible is working for you, go in peace.
