AI powered show suggestions

Here is something I've been experimenting with recently - show discovery through AI! Try it out and see how it works for you. Don't hesitate to ask it broadly or for a very specific types of shows - even if you need to describe it in multiple paragraphs - you can. For now, this is a Premium members only feature, but good news is Premium is free to try for 30 days (even if you had the trial before) and it's very cheap after - while giving you great features and supporting my efforts here. My testing shows huge potential, but I'm still tinkering with it and figuring out where to link/integrate it on Next Episode. So yeah, give this new feature a spin and let me know how it works for you! Edit: There was a bug that was causing it to load forever for some queries. It's fixed now!
