Apple Podcasts 12+

I have met Ralph online a number of times as we are members of the same Grognard book club. I had not bothered to check out the podcast previously as the volume of options is generally overwhelming. Being a Finn it took an episode about Finn Family Moomintroll to take the plunge.
On checking the list of episodes, one on The Dispossessed by Ursula K Le Guin leapt out and was immediately on the headphones, as Paul Mitchener was on as the special guest. I now have to read a lot more of the Hainish Cycle, now I know there are a score or more stories.
I look forward to listening to the other podcasts on other favourite authors and films, as the discussion and production has been great thus far.

radikoが改悪され、彷徨った結果、Podcastの存在を知りました。

・CMがない

・先に進む、戻るが簡単（さらに、設定で15秒・30秒など飛ばし時間も調整できる）

・アップされていれば、期間関係なく聴取可能

・位置情報オフでも使用可能

など、radikoで不便な点が解消されました。

唯一不便な点は、ピックアップされた内容しか聴けない事です。
まあこれは、TBSなど配信側の切取り具合でしょうが。 ニュース番組なため、当日のみ、またはオンタイムのみでも聴ければ構わないものです。番組の切取り内容を、もう少し増やせないでしょうか？

しかし、前述の通り不便はありません。 radiko以外でラジオを聴く選択肢があり、大変助かりました。

I’ve been using the podcast app for some years now and became especially fond of it during the pandemic. I probably listen to somewhere between one and four hours of podcasts a day and just this evening my entire library of podcasts that I’ve been listening to going back to the mid twenty teens suddenly disappeared and now I’m having to remember what shows I’ve listened to and have been listening to and trying to re-add them. Extremely disappointed and thinking to use a different app podcast player that will hopefully be safer than this. Really disappointed…
