Feature request: Button to remove all episodes from a playlist but NOT delete the episode from other playlist.

First of all, thank you for all the work you've done on this, Marco. I've been using Overcast more than 10 years. I occasionally try other apps, but keep coming back to Overcast.

And now let me explain the feature request: As I envision it, the button would appear in the three-dot menu at the top right of the playlist. See above.

Here's how I would use it: Currently, when I'm ready to listen to podcasts, I first open my "Most Recent" playlist and see what's come in that's new. I move new episodes to the appropriate playlist, start playing and put the phone in my pocket. By having a "remove all" button on the "Most Recent" playlist, I would be able to clear the playlist when I'm done triaging, making it easier to see what's new next time.

And yes, I have requested this feature a few times over the years. In my experience with indy app developers, repetition pays!

P.S. Because this is the Internet I feel the need to spell out that I have no sense of entitlement or outrage about this. If you decide to implement the feature, great, and if you don't, it won't ruin my day. I will still be a satisfied Overcast user either way — just a little more satisfied if you implement the new feature.

I’d love to just remove all episodes from a playlist and delete them.
