How to Listen to Podcasts in Random Order

If there's a new one I'll listen to the most recent episode. Most podcasts do get better over time so just going straight back to the start you might have to wade through some treacle before they find their feet. If it is good I would tend to look at the back catalog and just cherry pick the titles that I think look like there'll be about things that interest me because I'm aware that if you listen to old episodes they'll be talking about things that are no longer in the news.
