This American Life is an awesome podcast. However, their feed leaves much to be desired - it has one item at a time, with old items removed.
Now, I don't get to listening to the podcasts for some time usually. So each Friday DoggCatcher just deletes what I had downloaded. This is annoying. How can I handle this?
You can use the retain expired items feed option.

I'm also a big fan of TAL, and recently bought your product to be able to expand to download video podcasts which Listen just didn't do. But, in Google Listen, they have many more episodes available? Why is that? And is there way to access those episodes through DC? Worst case scenario I just have two podcast apps on my phone, but I was hoping to only need yours. Solutions?
I would suggest turning on retain expired. It will keep all the items after they are no longer published in the feed.
