Podcasts are increasingly polluted with advertisements. I started listening to podcasts because they were largely ad free. I hate ads.

Hate them.

Hate.

I will happily become a paying subscriber to a good podcast if it keeps the ads off. But the ads have become more numerous and more inconvenient. At some point someone discovered that folks were simply skipping intros to avoid ads at the beginning and they started putting them unannounced in the middle of conversations.
