Why is the sort feature always grayed out in the Podcasts app on MacOS Catalina? No matter what screen I'm on, it's always the same.... unable to sort.  Why even include the feature at all?  Is this a bug?
I'm going to say it's a Catalina bug.  I have 10.15 and have dozens of different podcasts downloaded.

I couldn't get those menu items to be enabled.  I tried all different kinds of variations of selecting/not selecting podcasts and it never worked.

Hopefully, this will be fixed in a future patch or someone will add an answer telling us what we're doing wrong.
