GnR come over and did a huge 2 nights at the Olympic Stadium and that was it. I know it's not comparible per se, but there's no reason why BJ couldn't do the same. It wouldn't be 5 or 6 stadiums, but 1 or 2 could easily do, be it both in London or 1 in London, 1 in Manchester for example.

Or they could play a few arena shows in the big cities. They'd do well (tickets would be pretty dear sadly) as they have quite often over-saturated the demand previously, so less is more in terms of this tour.

Edit: Having just finished the podcast, it does sound like the "No Stadiums" bit was in reference to NY/USA as opposed to anything else. There didn't seem to anything even remotely alluding to Europe or where these 30 shows would be.
According to what I've heard from the podcast, Jon rejected offers to play mid-2017 stadium dates.

I'm pretty sure it's a 30-show tour starting March.
