    This is my main concern too.

    Also AntennaPod seems to be worse than Google Podcast at Bluetooth connections going into standby during conversational pauses creating jilted cutoffs.

      I have not experienced that, but have you tried the Skip silence in audio feature? It does a good job removing pauses in audio which would hopefully solve the problem you are experiencing.

        I’m typically looking to entertain myself with a podcast and skipping silence would be like cutting parts of scenes in a movie because “nothing is happening”.

        It’s probably more of an issue with the cheap Bluetooth devices I’ve tried to use.

          Sorry I still don’t see the issue.

          Aren’t those skip silence trimmers just a few seconds of nothing?

          I have always had them on with Pocket Casts and honestly I wouldn’t know better 😅

            Some people don’t mind watching syndicated reruns of TV sitcoms that have been sped up to provide more time for commercial breaks. I find that it ruins the experience for me. Conversations have natural pauses and cutting them out in a podcast similarly ruins the experience for me. Google podcasts has this feature and I intentionally don’t use the feature.
