How do I view podcasts I've downloaded for a specific podcast series?

[benfranklin79]

I would like to load a list of podcasts I've downloaded for a specific podcast series for two reasons:

- I want them all ready to play in succession

- It's useful to unable me to quickly delete them later on instead of trawling through them, deleting each download.

I've tried the following:

Go to "Your Library"

Click on the "Podcasts & Shows" tab

Click on the "Downloaded" tab

What I get is a list of the podcast series I've subscribed to which contain at least one downloaded podcast - not what I want. Any help appreciated, thanks.

Hey @benfranklin79,

Thanks for the post.

For seeing the downloaded episodes per show, open the Podcast show itself. After that click on Sort > Downloads. 

That should show your downloaded episodes from that podcast in order.

Regarding the deletion - there is no quick way to do it. You'll have to manually deselect every downloaded episode.

Hope this info helps 🙂 Give us a shout if you have more questions.

Alex, thanks so much for your reply. This works fine for me. I have to admit that it's not a particularly great UI experience to hide filtering functionality behind a sort button. Not the obvious place to look.

Thanks again!
