Try a better podcast player
Stitcher at one time was an ok podcast player. It was no frills and user friendly, but as of the last "update" the app has become almost un-useable. At any given moment when listening to a podcast the app will drop you out and make you restart. I have had this happen two to three times on every show I tried to listen to. When you do restart you most listen from the beginning. The app has also become a drain on the battery life of both my Galaxy 6 and my IPhone 6S. The drain is so bad that I have to force stop the app every time I use it. The app will not keep your favorites list intact and will add shows that you do not request. They also refuse to carry some of the most popular show I.E. Adam Carolla. Lastly and the most disturbing is the lack of customer service or even feed back to help with these issues. After several times trying to contact them all I have gotten so far are canned responses that have nothing to do with the issues at hand. As much as I hate to say it if you want to reduce your frustration and live a happier life you may want to find a better podcast player.
