Richard Harris (ID: 0000009f1cbe20db) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/18/2023 Adds some nice themes for some variation. Hopefully, they'll eventually add a dark mode by default or roll Podcasts into Youtube Music. This extension is a great addition, would like to see some others or maybe a custom option.

Eliza Roberts (ID: 0000003d23a5e4e0) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 12/22/2022 The Google Podcast website burns my eyes and doesn't have a dark mode. This extension is exactly what I was looking for and I appreciate it! If you download the extension and don't see any difference- make sure you refresh the Google podcasts page. The themes are on the right side of the screen.
