make the maximum speed greater than 3x
Some podcasts have really slow talkers and I like to maximize the amount of information I get from my podcadt listening time. I've found that the brain can comprehend words much faster than any human can normally talk. If the max was bumped up to around 5 times that'd be great!

Thanks for this request and update. I've been searching for an Android podcast app that can play over 3x for over half an hour and this is the only one I've found. I wish it said up to what speed it can play in the description. It'd already be saving me time :-). I'm going to buy it right now.

Increased playback speed is one of my favorite features of Podcast Addict. Cranking up the supported speed to 5x or more would be really excellent. I've been gradually bumping up my playback rate by +0.1x per month, and I'm soon to hit the limit. My ears crave more speed!

In the meantime you can try enabling 'Skip silence' in Settings/Player/Audio
It might help shorten the playback time.
If it sounds 'weird' you can still disable it from the player screen by podcast
