Allow for episode urls that only contain the number #1812

I have an episode number that I want to see the show notes for, it would be nice if I could just use the episode number in the URL. (Ex. https://syntax.fm/show/808)

Hey! Right now the syntax.fm/808 will redirect you - do you see a use where the /show/### would be useful as well?

I was listening to the podcast on my phone and I wanted to load up the episode on my computer without paging though the episode list.

I guess this isn't as useful since the slug for the show doesn't actually matter.

https://syntax.fm/show/808/the-future-of-javascript-frameworks-building-auth-db-design-tips-and-more and https://syntax.fm/show/808/420-69 load the same episode page.

I think a more user friendly suggestion would be, allow users to type the episode number in the search.

That was the first thing I tried. Typing 808 into the search.
