As you might have read elsewhere, neither Pocket Cast nor TuneIn can play podcasts produced by Slate and NPR (and probably others) through the S1 controller -- “unable to play - connection was lost” error messages. I’ve had conversations with the very nice Pocket Cast folks, even though I added that I wouldn’t be re-subscribing when my current year ran out, but nothing we tried worked. Those seem to be my only podcast-streaming options for these particular shows. And, unfortunately, I can't update my system to accommodate S2 for now.
Maybe you know a secret…?
