Seemingly everywhere? When i search an existing podcast or even just a subject in my podcast app it typically suggests no less than 30 podcasts to me, most of which i have never heard of. I have found new ones that are quite good, as well as some stinkers and duds. Hard to believe it is that hard to find something vaguely interesting if you have used a modicum of effort.


yeah, i should have been more explicit -- i want not only new-to-me podcasts, but actually-new/newly-created podcasts -- as in podcasts that were created in the last day, week, month, year, etc.

but after all my searching, there are no new-to-me pods, unless i just can't find the newly-created pods, which is very possible, even likely.


Ah my mistake. Maybe the answer lies in combining podcast searches with filtering options within your app? I've recently started using filters on my searches in various applications/file systems/etc and it has really improved my UX across the board. Switching from "sort by relevance" to "newest first" might be the move. I've also had a bit of luck trying out podcasts outside of my normal areas of interest.

Good luck on your hunt.
