Podcasts can’t be removed because it’s “required by macOS.”


Whether or not you believe that to be true (I don’t), the system won’t let your uninstall the app, so it’s not worth your time to try to do so.


If you’re having other issues with the Podcasts app, there may or may not be other steps you can take to diagnose and fix the issue.
