Hello. I prefer Downcast. Both Downcast and Overcast are of high
quality and seem to be the top preferred apps among blind users.
Overcast is free and Downcast cost a few dollars. I like the layout of
Downcast which lists my unplayed podcasts at the top and my played
podcasts at the bottom of the ap's screen. In Downcast, you can make
global settings, and podcast specific settings. For example, my
default speed to play podcasts is 1.25X, but a music podcast that I am
subscribed to plays at normal speed. There are many other things I
like about Downcast. You can set Downcast to display and keep up to 20
unplayed podcasts, or to keep everything. I have had it set to keep
everything, which means that daily podcasts can get well into the
hundreds of unplayed episodes. I've tried Overcast a few times and
find myself going back to Downcast, but they're both great apps. Try
them and see which you like.

Good luck,
Wayne
