Podcasts from Stitcher on Forerunner 945

I am interested in buying the 945 instead of running with my Samsung galaxy 9 phone. However, I want to know if I can download podcasts from Stitcher to the 945. I have only seen on Forums that apple podcasts have been able to be downloaded.

Thanks.

FWIW (n=1), I use the Runcasts Connect IQ app for all my podcasts (including Freakonomics and others from Stitcher). Very easy to build a podcast queue. Queue auto-syncs over WiFi when I plug my watch into a USB charger. Don't have to look at the watch to skip forward 30 seconds through ads. The Runcast subscription costs $5/month.
I also have the Deezer app on my 945 and could get podcasts that way, but I prefer the purpose-built Runcasts. I only switch to Deezer for the rare times when I would rather listen to music while running. Have not tried Spotify.
As an aside, I also love my Aeropex off-ear headphones. So comfortable and discrete that I wear them much of the day (and listen to more podcasts during chores). And yes, I think the 945 is a great watch (also have a Fenix 6X Solar and a Vivoactive 4, but love the 945's combination of no touchscreen and low weight when running).
