Oh I HATE the trend of corporate podcasts shoving episodes of other shows into their feed. I look forward to a new episode of the show I like only to start it and hear some other show.
A close second is some podcasts have started putting reruns into their feed. I guess someone told them that missing weeks is bad so they just put a rerun in. Ugh.
- DamnInteresting 8y agoAgreed, re-runs are another annoyance that is driving me away from many podcasts. The concept is an obsolete relic of broadcasting.
- scott_s 8y agoYes, which is why I forgive This American Life for doing it - they pioneered the format that many podcasts follow, and TAL started on, and is still broadcast on, radio.
- scriptkiddy 8y ago> A close second is some podcasts have started putting reruns into their feed. "Stuff you should know" and "Stuff to blow your mind" do this. However, they sprinkle these in once a week and still release their normal 2 new episodes per week. It kind of makes sense for these shows since they have a massive back log and the nature of the subject matter is not really time sensitive.
