I listen to podcasts while driving and I don't want to mess with setting up manual playlists of current episodes of several short podcasts. It groups the podcasts together in an inflexible way where after playing the most current episode it plays the next oldest episode of the same podcast instead of playing the newest episode of other subscribed podcasts.
Without that capability, it is useless to me.
Ahh I see what you're saying. I listen to my podcasts mostly while driving too, but honestly don't have much problem flipping back and forth between various podcasts within my favorites list as the newest episodes are always listed at the top anyway. After I'm finished listening to the newest episode of one I just back out of the current podcast, click another podcast feed from my favorites list, click the podcast at the top of the feed and that's it. The UI makes it quick and visually easy to see so it's not much worse than looking down to see the caller ID screen.

But if you're looking for the type of functionality where you just hit one button and don't mess with it again for the rest of your drive I'm not sure there's an option like that out there unfortunately.
