Oh how interesting Daniel.
Thanks for letting me know.
Think I will try playing around with this too.

Hi again Kim. Good news, even though I don't know how I actually did it but I
managed to sort out the ordering of the podcast episodes of a podcast once
you tap the selected one that's not in order.

I think how I did this was to create playlists for the podcasts that I was
noticing this with and then in turn, go into them individually and set the
order from oldest to newest. Once this was done, I went back into the
podcasts themselves and saw that the earliest was at the top and latest, at
the bottom. After this, I deleted the created playlists and the podcasts
settings luckly didn't changed.

At least, I think this is how I achieved what I was wanting for the podcasts
to do but it was partly due to trial and error on my part, just messing
around with the settings.

I just wanted to share this, just in case anyone else experience this trouble
as I have and while my solution isn't a concrete one, its here for what's its
worth.

Thanks though Kim, for encouraging me to mess around with the settings.
Without your suggestion, I might of not gotten the podcast ordering fixed.

Hi Daniel,
I looked and could not find that.
I know it seems a bit extreme, but you could put each podcast into a
playlist of its own.
Also look in the main settings and see what you find.
You can ask the developer too.
I think he is very good.
Sorry I could not help more.

Hi kim, many thanks for this but what I ment was the podcast list
themselves once you've opened the app. Not the playlist option you
mentioned. I'm one of those people who like to open the app, find my
podcast that I'd like to listen to, double tap that and then find the
podcast episode I want to listen to. Its the podcast list that's not in
order that I'd like to change. Not the PLAYLISTS Heading of the app. If
that's any more clearer to understand what I'm trying to express.

Hi there,
I have them going from the oldest to newest.
I think it is in playlist settings.
I will check.
I know it can be done and love the app overcast.

Hi all, is there anyone here who uses overcast and knows of a way for
the episodes of a podcast to go from the oldest downloaded episode to
the latest? So to put this into context with the applevis podcast, they
are currently listed in the following order but I'm wanting the reverse.
I hope this makes sense.
