 - `podcasts.json` — your podcast list, as `{ "podcasts": [ ... ] }`
 
+`banner_style` picks the TUI banner wordmark: `joined` (the default) draws the letters with box-drawing characters and needs a terminal that draws those itself, such as Windows Terminal or kitty; `ascii` is the plain fallback for terminals that leave gaps between the strokes, Warp among them.

 ### Per-podcast options (`podcasts.json`)
 
 Each entry in `podcasts.json` has the same shape as `default_podcast` plus its identity fields. The **CLI flag** column applies to `podcast add` and `podcast edit`.
