Looks like Google is dumping the podcasts app and moving it all to Youtube music.

    I’m not MAD, I’m just disappointed. And glad I stayed on other apps for podcasts this whole time. Counting the days until they kill YouTube Music for yet another new app that does mostly the same thing but shittier for a couple years until they rinse and repeat the cycle.

    Ill probably go to a different app but it does kinda make sense to consolidate functionally identical audio apps into one.

      I used it because it was separate so when I open the app it just had podcasts and didn’t try and play music from 2 hours ago.

    Oh my god are you serious. I suspected as much when they started with Podcasts on YouTube Music. They always deny it at first and then they still do it…

    It’s not really shutting down; it’s just consolidating the media to the more well known brand.
