Podcast Bonus Episode Filtering

[arisr]

Dear Spotify,

I really enjoy using Spotify to listen to my favorite podcasts. However, I’ve noticed a challenge when it comes to filtering podcast episodes. Some podcasts include bonus episodes that are exclusive to premium subscribers.

It would be incredibly helpful to have an option to filter out bonus episodes for users who cannot access them. This would make it easier to focus on the episodes that are available. 

Thank youuu

Yes THIS. Please add a filter option

It would be incredibly useful to toggle off subscription/locked content for all podcast feeds or specific podcasts individually.
Maybe work in a push notification when a particular podcast begins offering subscription content if that’s not already a thing? But if you listen to a podcast, you’re typically made aware multiple times per episode if they offer this content. It would be simple enough to toggle back on if you decide to subscribe to one. 
please please please and thank you for considering this one

I do not want my feed cluttered with podcasts I don't have access to. I would like the option to remove all locked podcast episodes from my feed without individually getting rid of them (on a computer, because, as far as I can tell, there's no way to do it from my phone).

I have no beef with the ads - I understand the difference between ads that Spotify runs (which are eliminated with Premium), and ads that free podcasts run to pay for themselves. But I don't want my clutter filled with podcast episodes I can't do anything with

Shock horror, another attempt to push paid content under the guise of poor and unintentional fiddling. Bring in the toggle to hide locked content ASAP please

I'm absolutely livid about this. It's so cluttered and borderline unusable

An update just rolled out to me that shows locked, premium content in my podcast feeds. 

It's a pain to scroll through years of episodes as it is, which is why I appreciate the filters that allow me to sort by oldest and unplayed. These were thoughtful and helpful filters. But now that all of the locked content is and remains unplayed, these filters are much less useful. 

I listen to podcasts while cleaning, working, and driving. Adding additional visual clutter and extra episodes to scroll through that can't be finished or filtered out is the opposite of helpful. There are SO MANY EPISODES THAT I CAN'T FILTER OUT. An unbelievable amount!

I've been a premium subscriber for over ten years. I'm even a dual subscriber now. I listen to Spotify every single day. Please consider this, it is such a big deal.

This should be prioritized. I have to go to to desktop to be able to "mark as finished" so that locked episodes don't show up in the feeds of podcasts I listen to.
