Finally. That’s exactly what I expected. The app hasn’t been updated for years, they removed the Google podcast widget on the Google search and added a “Podcast” category to YouTube.

Litetally no podcast app I’ve tried has a search feature a tenth as good. I use antenna pod but still kept google podcast for its search feature.

Google podcast is an awful app (also it was pretty expected that they will kill Google podcasts and replace it with YouTube music since that was hinted in the last few years)

Spotify sucks, but it doesn’t suck as bad as YouTube music does. I lost a few tracks in the conversion but it works so much better that it was worth it.

I ended up hitting YTM, then Spotify, then settled on Tidal after Google Play Music shut down. Nothing beats what GPM had

Sure, a video app makes much more sense for podcast delivery!

Honestly, podcasts on YouTube are better if you have sponsorblock

It’s mainly a music app. Videos can be enabled, but by default it’s off.

YouTube is the video app, not YTM.

Many podcasts have a video component, so it actually does if implemented correctly.

They are mimicking Spotify. How they have music and podcasts built into one app.
