I paid for Overcast before it became a subscription model, so I have most all of the features for a one-time fee. I'm not a fan of the subscription model, and I believe Pocket Casts is currently a one-time purchase, so I'd give it a go if you're looking to experiment.

But every time I'm flipping the channels and run across it, I'm stuck until the end. Every. Single. Time.

I mean, what she said was seriously horrible, but that show was bringing ABC massive numbers, and I didn't think they would actually have the guts to ax it. I thought that she would apologize, they would pay some lip service to how that won't be tolerated, and by the Fall when the show came back it would all have been forgotten.
Maybe we are making progress.

It ran smooth as butter, but, no matter how well it ran, I always got out under the tree in the back yard and tried to make it run "better." In tinkering with it, I pulled the lid off the air filter, and it was full of oil. I thought, "Oh my gosh, if this thing is blowing this much oil into the air filter, it's going to blow up any day. I need to get rid of this!" So I did.
It was several years later before I learned what an oil bath was. (In case you don't know, it was supposed to have all that oil in there. The oil trapped dirt and cleaned the air as it passed through.)

Man, I am SUCH an Otis Redding fan. Not only a great singer, but also songwriter as well.
