How to remove and stop past podcasts from being recommended

[#1]

Last year I was searching for some podcasts of specific interest but after giving a couple shows a try and not liking what I found I gave up and moved on. Now both of these podcasts are not only looming in my "Your Shows" despite having never followed them in the first place I am also getting notifications when new episodes are posted. I'm not following either, I never clicked like, and I'm sick of seeing them every time I open the app I pay for. How do you remove or block these shows so I never have to see them again?

Greetings, so If you are seeing podcasts that you don't want to see in your "Your Shows" list and are receiving notifications for them, you can remove them from your account using these steps:

1. Open the Spotify app and go to the "Your Library" section.

2. Tap on the "Podcasts" tab.

3. Find the podcast that you want to remove and tap on it to open its page.

4. Tap the three dots in the upper right-hand corner of the page.

5. Select "Remove from Your Shows" or "Don't Notify Me" to remove the podcast from your account and stop receiving notifications for new episodes.

6. Repeat these steps for any other podcasts that you want to remove.

If you've never followed these podcasts or interacted with them in any way, it's possible that they were recommended to you based on your listening habits. In that case, you may also want to adjust your podcast preferences in your Spotify account settings.

To do this:

1. Open the Spotify app and go to the "Your Library" section.

2. Tap on the gear icon in the upper right-hand corner to access your account settings.

3. Scroll down to the "Podcasts" section and toggle off any podcast preferences that you don't want to be used for recommendations.

I hope this helps you remove the unwanted podcasts from your account and stop receiving notifications for them. Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns!
