When you find a new podcast that has lots of episodes already recorded, do you start at the beginning, the latest, or what? (lemmy.world)

It depends the podcast and how much I enjoy it.

If it's a podcast with a single theme that will be treated across all episodes, say something about Ancient Egypt or Greece for example, I will start at the first episode and slowly move my way up.
If it's just people chatting, or something that doesn't require some kind of progression, I will listen to whatever episode is available.
But if after an episode or two I think it's a podcast I think I will particularly appreciate, I will start over from the first episode.
