Tagging shows: partial seasons, show ended, show abandoned, ad free
-
In the vein of driver reported road construction and traffic slowdowns on GoogleMaps, I’d like listener-generated tags re: the some of the most off-putting aspects of podcasts and some of the best. The things that make listeners say “if I’d known this from the beginning, I wouldn’t have started listening,” or the opposite: “I only choose shows like this!”
If I search the Discover tab and look at a podcasts, I’d love to see tags telling me other listeners found it had partial seasons or an extensive back-catalogue; that it was ad heavy even by podcast standards or that it’s was an ad free unicorn; and if it has ended or been abandoned.To keep those tags up to date, there’s the GoogleMaps example again of prompting listeners of a podcast “previous listeners reported this podcast has made some but not all of its episodes available here. Is that still accurate?”

Thanks for the suggestion! I’ve forwarded this to our development team for consideration.
