What is up with the BP Search function?

I just wanted to throw out some constructive criticism to Bigger Pockets as I've been frustrated with the search function ever since I joined.  Unless I am completely doing something wrong...the search function kinda sucks.  It just seems like it simply doesn't work.

For example, I just listened to podcast 295 with Melissa from Lead Propeller, so I was feeling kinda stoked about getting leads online.  So I hopped on BP and searched "lead propeller" thinking I would see DOZENS of threads - but I got a big fat goose egg. "No Results"

Then I went to google and typed in "bigger pockets lead propeller" and boom, there's the dozens of threads I was hoping for.  This proves that the threads exist but they're not being found by the actual BP search function.

This issue has happened to me countless times and it's time for me to voice my frustration.  Is anybody else struggling with this?
