Add an Audio Focus option, so we can listen to music at the same time
I'd love a little ambient music while listening to some more technical orientated podcasts. Removing audio focus would let you play music from other players or browse media heavy sites at the same time without having to restart playback. Listen Audiobook Player has this feature and it's the reason I use that app over any others for audiobook.
Edit: Delivered in v3.21
The new version will add an experimental setting to allow this.
It will be available in Settings/Player.
The beta will be live in a couple of hours

Great idea. Tried it with Spotify and it works well, but only with boosted volume so the podcast is played louder than the music (there's no audio volume in either apps). It'd be great to have a different solution to lower the music or increase the podcast volumes because 'boosted' makes voices sound scratchy.

Yes I already do this with audiobooks using listen audiobooks app. It's really special. Would be amazing to have this with my podcasts !
