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?

Welcome to Tidal! I came from Spotify myself and the improvement in audio quality alone means I haven't looked back!

I use Google Podcasts to fill the gap

I would also recommend Google Podcasts. Pretty basic, but does it all very well. Queue continuity across the app and web is great. However, Google being google, they are likely to be sunsetting it soon in favour of rolling podcasts into YouTube Music (which I would also suggest in place of Spotify).

I use Google Podcasts and it works great for me. I'm not looking for audiophile-level uncompressed audio with podcasts, the way I normally would be for music.
