New Library experience is unusable for Podcast episodes

My Question or Issue

App version 8.6.2.774
The new library experience has made my daily podcast use case unusable. I typically would go to Podcasts and view by Episodes. It was a nice little inbox in reverse chronological order of episodes.

With the new experience, I go to Library, select the Podcasts filter and there is no way to get a view that shows me this reverse chronological order of episodes. "Recently added" sorts on when I started following the podcast. So I am stuck having to scroll thru my podcasts and look for "updated today".
Big bummer -- if "Recently added" would show the recently added episodes across all the podcasts I follow it would fix it.

I have the same issue on IOS, it's made the app unusable for daily podcast listeners.
