Podcast Bookkeeper Sync Constant Sign In

I have been having a "Verify Apple ID" box pop up a lot when I am in the Podcast app on Iphone x ios 13.2.2. After verifying Apple ID, I get another pop up box "Podcasts Bookkeeper Syncs" asking me to enter my Apple ID password again. Usually I enter it and a spinning icon occurs in the box like it is doing something. Eventually it stops and asks me to enter my password again. Usually I have to kill the settings app for it to stop. If I choose to avoid this whole process, when the first box pops up I can choose Settings to enter my apple ID password and then kill the settings app. Box will eventually come back though regardless of what I do.

Tried turning off podcast sync but didn't affect anything.

I have tried signing out from icloud on IOS device. Resigning in. Rebooting. No luck

Tried deleting the podcast app and then signing out of icloud. Re signing in. Rebooting, and reinstalling podcast app. No luck.

Any suggestions? Other thing I haven't tried is backing up and then restoring to factory settings and then restore from backup. Not sure if that would help either, but that is a last resort due to amount of time it takes.

Happened since ios 13.1 but didn't start til a week or so later so might not be completely related to to that version.
