I built an app to stop feeling guilty about my podcast backlog

I have a confession. I subscribe to 23 podcasts. I've listened to maybe 40% of what I've saved.

The rest just sits there, silently judging me :|

The problem isn't motivation. It's time. A great episode is 45–90 minutes. I don't always have that. But I still want the signal — the one insight, the sharp take, the moment that makes the episode worth the slot in my queue.

So I built podEssence.

It's an app (Android + iOS) that picks the key highlights from podcast episodes — the bits actually worth your attention — and plays it in Original Voice. This is NOT a transcript summariser tool.

If you're sitting on a graveyard of saved episodes, I'd genuinely love for you to try podEssence, I am sure you will not be disappointed.
