I noticed a new background image on the Android podcast app this morning. I thought one of my podcasts changed their icon art. Nope, it's a Logan Paul podcast. I've never listened to any of his stuff. I only heard about him when he challenged someone to an MMA fight I think?

I only listen to Behind the Bastards, The Dollop, and Prosecuting Donald Trump, plus occasionally My Brother My Brother and Me.

I figured maybe one of my kids had subscribed or I had hit a subscribe button on the home page. Well, in the app, when I unsubscribe it immediately re-subscribes. I saw where other users had the same problem and it went away after an hour. This was 11 hours ago. I pulled it up on the Web version of Google podcasts. It looks like it unsubscribes but if I refresh, I'm subscribed again.

Any ideas? Is there a way to block a podcast?

Edit: Problem still persists 24 hours later. I'm not allowed to turn on the explicit filter either. On the app or on the web interface. What's a good android program that will record video of my screen and highlight taps? I want to record this. I think I still have OBS studio on my computer to show the web behavior.

Logan Paul is the new spokesperson for Raytheon. The app determined an automatic synergy and decided it was time for you to learn how to buy and sell "shitcoins" and drop $25k on mint quality unopened pokemon booster packs.

It's time to leave your silly Robert and Gareth behind and come join us in the land where showing suicided bodies in a Japanese forest is the new content.

I have nothing helpful to say but being forced to listen to Logan Paul is a flavor of dystopia that even Orwell wasn't cruel or mad enough to imagine. Fingers crossed for you.
