Describe the feature/enhancement

Hey there,

I currently have three podcasts being managed by the server. Two of them have "correct" metadata embedded in their rss feed per file. Each file has both a description and subtitle filled out appropriately.

firefox_HrtKK3SGQ4

However, I have one podcast which never has a subtitle filled out and thus each episode's subtitle is blank:

firefox_GU3Y7PRGCx

firefox_iLhMkAbO6Q

Would it be possible to implement a per podcast feature (or server-wide feature?) which will show the description in the subtitle's field when no subtitle is provided? I don't think this feature currently exists nor do I think this would be challenging to implement and would love to try to attempt this on my own.

Thanks so much. I love the app, and use it daily, wonderful work.
