Allow users to block certain podcasts from being suggested

Spotify already has a feature that allows user to block certain artists, using the "Don't play this artist" function. The same functionality doesn't exist for podcasts, though. Can we add a "Don't suggest this podcast" feature?

Spotify is flooded with political podcasts and**bleep** podcasts that unfortunetaly the Spotify algorithm wants to present it in my start-page, because Juergen from the neighborhood liked it? Come on. I don't want to be concerned with this aggro stuff and please let me block this nonsense. I don't want to see this.

 

Use your profiling not only for the likes, but also for the blocks. Implement it for the podcast **bleep**.

I listened to a couple minutes of a podcast one time and now it auto plays when an episode of a different podcast finishes. It is all over my home screen, so I accidentally touch it. I hate it, I don't want to ever listen to this podcast. But it auto-plays or accidentally plays and spotify pushes it even more, like I must like it. I don't. Let me hide it please!

Please implement this, I have never interacted with a podcast called "Pepe&Chema Podcast", yet Spotify plays it whenever it can... I despise the themes, the voice, the production, the format, I DESPISE ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING FROM THIS PODCAST.

Why can't I block it? Is as simple as blocking artists recommendations when it comes to music...

This is a pretty simple idea, and I don't know why it isn't an option. I'm annoyed that I'm constantly being bombarded with artists and podcasters that I have never listened to and have zero interest in.

 

Can we please have the option to block artists and podcasts? Why are you forcing content onto our landing pages that's not remotely curated and that we have no option to reject/dislike/hide? I was a beta tester in 2010-2011 and I have loved and promoted this product for many years, but it's just getting silly.

This is a basic common sense feature, add it.
