Benefits of the solution
You cannot currently remove shows from the podcast app. Some podcast users would probably stop listening to shows for a number of reasons, so they'd want to remove them from the app. There should be a way to delete either one or multiple shows from the app, provided there is a confirmation dialogue/popup in case of a mistake.
It would benefit those users who want to "spring clean" their shows list once in a while by giving them a way to remove those shows instead of having to find a config file in their filesystem and edit it.
Possible drawbacks
The only possible drawback would be accidental removal of shows, but this can be easily remedied with a confirmation dialogue.
