Hey folks - I have a question for #podcast listeners out there!

Like many people, I've got a broad range of interests, so my feed spans everything from comedy to business, behaviour change to advertising, philosophy to ecology.

Because I no longer commute for work, I don't get to listen as much as I once did, so my feed is like Japanese Knotweed...

Are there any podcast listening platforms out there which let you group feeds by topic (like Feedly does for RSS)?

This would really help me to focus - so when I want something business-y, I don't get distracted by a new What The Duck or similar!

All recommendations gratefully received!

(I've currently got AntennaPod running, which is a fabulous interface and app, but I can't see a way of grouping and arranging feeds...)

@interacter #antennapod fan here. Totally understand your problem. I was in the same boat.

You can assign tags to each subscription. The tags show up at the bottom of your subscriptions page so you can quickly navigate to the podcasts you're interested in at the time.

For Android...

Scriptions -> Podcast -> Gear Icon -> Tags

There are no pre-defined tags so you make them up. As you build your list the available options show up when tagging a new podcast. Podcasts can have multiple tags.

@aacur8 Ohh fabulous tip - thank you!

My only wish with AntennaPod is to be able to manage subscriptions via a browser as well. I've got 100s of different feeds (some active, some dormant) and on mobile it can be a real faff.

However I'll give the tags suggestion a go. Have a brilliant day!

@interacter @aacur8 antennaPod can work with GPoddersync wedi'ch might be easier than the mobile interface

@davidoclubb @aacur8 oh interesting. I shall have a look at that - thank you!
