Type of Enhancement

None

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

Bring collections to Podcasts. Allowing users to create a collection of Podcast episodes similar to a playlist, just public like Audiobook Collections. Another option would be to make playlists shareable between accounts, from a users perspective I think either solution would be a good fit.

Why would this be helpful?

I like to segment my episodic podcasts by season and bonus content where applicable, typically Ill create playlists that encapsulate the episodic podcasts I listen to by season. Recently I made accounts for some of my friends to listen to these podcasts, but if they want the segmentation that I have, they have to make their own playlists. This feature would allow me or them to create a collection of these episodes so that we don't all need to repeat the same work.

Future Implementation (Screenshot)

I have no idea how to visualize this.

Audiobookshelf Server Version

v2.19.0

Current Implementation (Screenshot)

I was reading that page of the guide while looking for what I am describing.

Seconded!
I have non tech-savvy users that would appreciate separation by season of my episodic podcasts!
