Podcasts from macOS Catalina not visible in Garmin Express

Podcasts from macOS not visible in Garmin Express.

I can see podcasts and have episodes downloaded locally once I click "Open Apple Podcasts", however they don't appear in Garmin Express after I click "Refresh".

Garmin Express v7.1.0.0

macOS Catalina v10.15.7 (19H2)

Apple Podcasts Version 1.0.0 (1440.4)

    I'm running Mac OS Big Sur. My issue is under Garmin Express > Music > iTunes Library > Podcast > does not display all of my subscribed podcasts. It's only displaying 1 of them.

    I noticed there is a 2nd hidden refresh button. It's buried inside the ? button on the top right corner. It actually resolved my issue above only once though. I uploaded the new podcast shows to my device, unplugged it but they weren't there (I noticed a tendency of the metadata being turned into cryptic hashes). Now the ? > Refresh flow doesn't do anything anymore.

    UPDATE:

    Garmin Express > Music > iTunes Library > Podcast > does not display all of my subscribed podcasts

    If I drill down into the only podcast show it sees, inside I can find episodes from unrelated shows.

    So Garmin Express is taking podcast B, C, D, etc and cataloging everything inside show A.

    Spent a lot on my Fenix 6 Plus. Every month I have to fight it to do what I want. It's an amazing device, but Garmin really needs to step up QA on Mac. I remember I also had issues with Catalina so don't think Big Sur is the culprit.
