Hi there! I completely understand how important it is for a program or stream to resume right where you left off. Let's work together to fix the issue you're experiencing with Democracy Now! starting over instead of remembering your last position.

Could you share a bit more about how you're accessing Democracy Now!? Are you using a web browser or an app on your Mac? Also, have you checked if your internet connection is stable, or if there are any updates available for your browser or app?

Once I have more details, I can guide you through some steps to try and resolve the issue.

I’m using the Apple TV app, which used to work perfectly well. Now, in addition to not holding my place, there is no longer any indication of which shows were watched and no dates are showing.

Thank you for the extra details! It sounds like there may be some settings or issues with the Apple TV app that's causing it not to remember where you left off on Democracy Now! and not marking the shows as watched.

Here are some steps you can try to resolve the situation:

1. Check Player Settings:
- Open the Apple TV app.
- Go to your account settings and look for an option related to “Use Play History” or similar. Make sure it is enabled. This setting helps the app keep track of your progress in the shows.

2. Sign Out and Back In:
- Try signing out of your Apple ID in the Apple TV app, then sign back in. This may refresh your account settings and resolve any sync issues.

3. Restart the App:
- Close the Apple TV app entirely from the app switcher and then relaunch it. Sometimes a simple restart can help it perform better.

4. Update the App:
- Make sure your Apple TV app is up to date. You can check for updates in the App Store on your device.

5. Reinstall the App:
- If you’re still having trouble, consider deleting the Apple TV app (hold down on its icon until it shakes and shows an “X,” then confirm deletion) and then reinstalling it from the App Store.

6. Restart Your Device:
- Finally, try restarting your Apple TV device. This can help refresh connections and settings.

If the problem persists after trying these steps, it may be related to a bug in the current version of the Apple TV app. You can check community threads, such as discussions on Apple’s community pages where others may have experienced similar issues, for potential fixes or updates. For instance, recent threads mention similar issues related to tvOS 18 2.
