Not a direct solution, but FYI...

I've used a couple of things to integrate Pocketcasts with Squeezebox,
coming from an Apple perspective:

    
- Chromecast Audio connected to Squeezebox Line In and use Chromecast
  to play podcasts (iOS app supports Chromecast)
- Shairtunes plugin for Squeezebox to play Pocketcasts running on
  iPhone to Squeezebox via AirPlay
  

AirPlay is easiest - the Chromecast support in PocketCasts is a bit
flaky, at least on the iOS side, and the native controls for AirPlay are
better in the Apple world. 

Chromecast is also second-best because of the need to use Line In - the
integration of Line In isn't as smooth as the Shairtunes integration
with it being a plugin.

With Shairtunes, you also get volume integration (i.e. volume control on
the iPhone controls the SB volume) and turning off the SB pauses playing
on the mobile.

I'm not sure a plugin would be easier than these things - especially not
the AirPlay interface - as the mobile UIs are great, Up Next works, you
can pick up whichever iOS device is handy and get going, and you can
easily switch between playing on the SB and playing on-device when you
want to leave the room and continue listening elsewhere.
