Podcast Distractions

Ari, really enjoy The Beat Podcasts (despite being an Australian based in Melbourne).

One aspect which is becoming a little annoying is the way Article II and other Podcast advertising is being thrust into your Podcast, often in mid- sentence of you or your guests.

I have developed a technique to fast forward over the Ads and not listen...... but I have also vowed never to listen to Article II. If the Ads annoy me through their rude interruptions, they will never get my vote to Subscribe to their main show. Probably not a fair thing to do, but I am sure other listeners would share my frustration.

Keep up the good fight.....

From Paul in the Land Down Under.

It’s okay but…

The rap stuff that Ari weaves into his podcast has a limited audience. It was okay once but it has stopped me from listening lately. It’s lame. Otherwise I enjoy Ari’s political breakdown.
