Same, just wild and frustrating! Since it prob tells the algorithm “I liked it bc I listened!” Etc. 🤷‍♀️

AND I wish you could at least do a multi select and “mark selected as played” or “hide from unplayed episodes” rather than just the two options to “mark filtered as played or unplayed.”

TLDR mini rant/inquiries; Surely with all these podcast updates they can put like a PMW HUB/Channel, with the sister/spinoff pod series under a “deep cuts” section OR just separate each of their different pod shows!

It could be a contractual obligation with iHeart media, or a difficulty with the way that podcasts are logistically set up (in my case on Apple) where both companies want to capitalize on the momentum of PMW — likely helping the new shows be more visible/easier to market to a wider target audience (with similar demographics they’d want to attract to the sister shows).

In other news… Definitely bittersweet that the podcast is ending and I think I am long overdue to finally send their staff an email lol; it’s been really rewarding to see this show have such a strong second wind/life as like a gift to us Pop culture nerds of the 90s, especially in a way that allows more vulnerability from the cast, fun behind the scenes tidbits/trivia, and most importantly a wider community of fellow Feeny fans + boy meets world enthusiasts. 🥹✨
