These Podcasting Features Will Save You So Much Time

One of the pages that I always wanted to keep coming back to and, like, make some updates to is the podcast details page.

And then you have to, like, see more.

And so now when they're updating their podcast description, they can see that, like, the top sentence is the primary real estate.

Like, that is so important, and then the rest of it gets cut off.

We get to do that a few different times.

You get to show, you know, the artwork is right next to the title, so, like-
