Has anyone else ever had a problem where TACS podcast randomly/automatically floods and downloads all episodes over night?

I've also had this happen with ESPN podcasts as well. Typically each show I'm subscribed to will automatically download the newest episode when it goes up. But once in a while a certain show will just flood my new downloads with like 20-50 episodes (basically an entire catalogue). The reason I ask if this happens to everyone else is because if it does it seems like a clear, desperate, and pathetic attempt to boost download numbers, and Cumia is the king of this maneuver

Yeah it's a documented bug the solution is to unsubscribe.

So it's not a desperate attempt to bolster downloads? Dammnit, that would have been way funnier

is it the iPhone podcast app that is doing this?

Yes, and it only happens with 3 shows. It happened with TACS several times (before I unsubbed altogether) and now it happens with the 2 ESPN shows I'm subscribed to. Seems like a clear tactic....either that or they're just incompetent retards
