Describe the issue

I disabled the scheduled download of a subset of my podcasts, but they seem to continue to check for updated episodes and download them. Here are some logs and my settings for 538 politics:

Thanks, I just fixed this bug. It may also explain some user reports that the podcast schedule didn't run.
