don't know how else to feed back, unless I manually select each episode one by one, the order runs from episode 207 backwards, which is very frustrating, i would like to give it a chance and listen in the car but can't put up with listening in reverse order. please fix and I'll remove my average rating and re review later :-)

can't play the podcasts in order
