Display Episode Description Snippet in Episode List

[jmandel]

Hi Pocket Casts team,

I'm a big fan of your app! It's my go-to for listening to podcasts. I have one feature suggestion that I think would make Pocket Casts even better.

Currently, when I'm browsing the episode list for a podcast, I only see the episode titles. This can make it difficult to quickly find an interesting episode, especially for podcasts where I only listen to selected episodes based on their descriptions.

Feature Request:

It would be incredibly helpful to see the first couple of lines of the episode description directly in the episode list. This would allow for much quicker scanning and decision-making about which episode to play.

Example:

Instead of only seeing:

• Episode 54: The Art of Minimalism

I could see:

• Episode 54: The Art of Minimalism ... Learn how to declutter your life and focus on what matters.

Use Case:

I often subscribe to podcasts where the topics are interesting, but I don't necessarily want to listen to every single episode. A quick description preview would massively help me choose the episodes that are most relevant to me at the moment.

Thank you!

Thank you for considering this feature. I think it would be a valuable addition to an already awesome app!
