The option to save, bookmark or add an individual podcast show to a playlist would be nice to have. I'm actually somewhat surprised that this functionality isn't available.
It's now possible to add Podcasts to playlists on iOS and Android. Just head to a podcast, click the three dots on the episode you want and select 'Add to Playlist'.
Not being able to add podcasts to playlists is very frustrating. I download many podcasts and listen to them in that order. This allows me to use the "played" flag and Downloaded flag to manage what I have and have not listened to. The issue I have every few weeks deals with the downloads just vanishing (reported here). That means that all my organization is just gone. Very frustrating. Just being able to add them to a playlist would alleviate this since issue and allow better management.
I'm wondering if we're any closer to being able to add podcasts to playlists. I downloaded Spotify for my Roku and I want to listen to podcasts while I clean but Roku doesn't bring up anything when I search for the podcast I'm looking for and I can't add it to a playlist so that just really sucks.
