These are the ones I usually see friends use- but maybe there are more?

Overcast is great because of the smart speed feature, which cuts unnecessary blocks of silence from the stream as you listen. They also tell you how much time you've saved, which is pretty cool (for me, 60 hours in the time I've had the app!)

@arthur_tkachenko Can you get all the podcasts you want to listen to on YouTube? Do the ads get annoying?

@abadesi I think it depends on different things. If you are stressed and ads bothering you - then it's time to take a walk. This is what I'm doing usually in last months. Yes, most of podcasts that I listen has a duplicate on YT.
actually, when i make a decision to listen something long - it means that i'm very calm, so no, ads is not my problem
I use google podcast :)
@amrita_sukumar Nice! I guess if I was on Android I would, too

@chaeschris I've gotta check this out! What are the best features you like on Overcast?
Pocket Casts. They still are ahead of Spotify with a few very useful features, in my opinion.
Am I lame for just using Apple Podcasts? I listen to 15-20 hours of podcasts a week, and nothing has been compelling enough to make me switch!
