Breadcrumbs!!!
Is there any way I can easily go back to a Podcast I was just listening to? Or see my history? If you accidentally push a button and lose a podcast halfway through an episode you can't go back or see which one it is! My playback in progress list is incomplete. This is the worst and most frustrating part of PA besides not knowing where a track in the Recycle Bin came from if you cant see the art.

You can Access the current podcast by pressing on the player banner displayed at the bottom of every screen. Then from the player screen you can swipe to see the playlist or press on the artwork to open the episode and access the remaining list of episodes of this podcast.
You can also use the navigation sidebar to open the 'Playback in progress' screen which shows the list of every episode you started listening to but didn't finished. Completed episodes can be seen from the playback History screen.
The recycle bin only contains episodes deleted automatically based on your automatic cleanup settings. They remain there for the duration you selected in the app settings. Please send me an email if you have any questions (Settings/Feedback)
Thanks
