Podcasts in Google Music would be cool IFF I could play podcasts and faster speeds. I use BeyondPod and they allow me to play podcasts as 1x, 1.5x and 2x speeds. I tend to use 1.5x on all podcasts except for a few which I keep at 1x. I'm used to listening to them at 1.5x. When I listen at 1x it just seems to drag!
