    I feel like I've never had a problem with the iphone app. What's your issue with it exactly?

    Lots of issues once I updated to iOS 11
    For one I get “episode not available” almost every day
    You can no longer get episodes to play in sequence automatically after one ends
    The old subscribe/update manually function was very good. Along with organizing podcast feed in the order you like. Now it’s either random or I can’t figure it out
    Most annoying is if you want to search for a podcast in your library you have to click through 4 screens to find it (library > shows > click the show > available episodes) then another two to download it

    I listen to podcasts every day when I drive. Until this iOS came out I had zero complaints

    Need to look into these other podcast apps

    espn is such garbage. I’m watching sportscenter and the scrolling ticker on the bottom has news saying lonzo ball’s dad says players don’t want to play for coach walton. Why the hell is that news? Then I go on the espn app to see some nba videos and 4-5 of the videos are of the ball family. There’s interviews with all 3 sons and a sit down interview with their annoying dad. I saw coach rick carlisle’s rant about how espn is responsible for that garbage and how the coaches don’t like it. They don’t like how a disgruntled dad of a player is making news by trashing the coach.

    Honestly, of all the media things I've seen in my life where I've said "this cannot possibly be topped" I am now at the point where LaVar Ball and family has now surpassed Tim Tebow.... it's the most pathetic thing I have ever seen.

    The best part is that there is literally no one who wakes up and goes "I wonder what the Balls are up to today?" This entire thing was created out of thin air and force fed out of pure laziness, and it's proven to us again that ESPN (and yes, other outlets) could literally make up a fantasy story with script writers and if they cover it and pretend it is news.....then it's news.

    The tebow years were awful. So were the arod, terrell owens, and fat honda rousey over-coverage but at least they were athletes.

    Why the hell is the dad of a rookie getting so much coverage? Leave that trash journalism for first take and undisputed. I remember for 3-4 days in a row he was the first story on the morning sportscenter. It made no sense.

    Because folks like you go on message boards complaining about it. You’re keeping the conversation alive. If you didn’t react to everything he did, the coverage would probably dwindle by now.

    Can't stand Sarah Spain. I've heard Lebatard check her multiple times and make her look like an idiot when she's arguing a point for the sake of arguing it. Most of her ideas/solutions are cliche or borrowed and she rarely brings anything interesting to the table outside the fact that she's a loud woman that can "hang with the guys"
    ESPN has a lot more better women that could use the airtime she gets.
