That’s why Castamatic has no server component. You choose what to listen to—no one else. A podcast app that receives episodes through a server isn’t truly a podcast app; it’s just a front end for someone else’s media distribution service. You might trust who runs the service now, but who knows who will come next?
(unfortunately the same goes for app stores, computing platforms and mobile OS)
