Podcast controls in WatchOS 3?

I just upgraded my watch to WatchOS 3 and I'm not sure how to control podcasts anymore.

In WatchOS 2, I used the Podcasts "glance" to play/pause my podcasts. But I don't see a replacement app in the new "dock". Is this an oversight and loss of functionality? Or did the controls just move somewhere else? I checked the Music and Remote docks, thinking it might have moved there but no luck.

I used to use the Podcast glance to pause/unpause and adjust the volume of podcasts that I listen to on various Bluetooth devices. It was something I used daily and will be a bummer to lose.

My main problem is that I can't press forward or reverse to go through my podcast list. For example, in the pebble watch, you had that ability, but I'm surprised I don't see it here.

I have the same grumble too. I would like to do more than just control pause and play podcasts from my watch. Choosing what to play is fundamental.
