I need Podcast app recommendations for Android/PC (beehaw.org)

So I'm in the process of switching from Spotify to Tidal for my music streaming (since Tidal pays artists like three times more than Spotify does). The only problem is, Tidal doesn't support podcasts, which is another big thing I used Spotify for.

So what are some good apps for podcasts? I listen both on my PC and my Android phone, and I'm not really thrilled about the idea of paying for another subscription (so now I'm making two payments to cover the functionality I got with a single, cheaper payment). I'm cool with paying a one-time up-front fee, though.

Any suggestions?

This is the one for me. I just checked and I've been using the premium version since May 2016 and it cost me £2.50. Only issue I've had in that time is the web player was failing to buffer episodes for streaming, but that has since resolved for me.

That was most likely caused by a limitation or rather security feature of the browser regarding cross-domain resources. They offer a desktop Electron-based app that works around this.
