Podcast Republic is my go to. I listen to 5 or 6 podcasts. But have 2 or 3 that are time relevant, like news. I set those as priority, and Podcast Republic makes an auto playlist that puts them all in order by my preference, then release date old to new.

If a preferred podcast comes out, it goes to the top of my auto playlist. I can’t podcast without it now.
