Create and manage a station in Podcasts on Mac
You can create stations (previously called playlists in iTunes) with the shows you follow—for example, you might want to group all shows about personal finance into a station. You can play the podcasts in your station in any order, and the stations are automatically updated when new episodes become available.
A station has the station icon next to it.
