Unable to remove podcasts from the Apple Podcast app on my Apple Watch

I do not see a way to remove podcasts from the Apple Podcast app on my watch, other than by playing them. I do not see a custom setting with the newest iOS on the watch.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

It's ridiculous. No matter what you do on your phone, it seems your watch grows fond of some podcasts and they NEVER GO AWAY! And your new podcasts that you want your phone to download? THEY NEVER DOWNLOAD.

I have looked for information across the internet and found no instructions which match what I find on my iphone, watch app, or on my watch. It seems mark as played on the podcast app on the apple watch has an impact. I think back on the ipod days how simple it was to load and delete what I wanted when I wanted.
