Great content, but why so many ads suddenly?
Re-upping my semi-annual complaint. This podcast has been my go to source for news for years - great content - but the drastic uptick in ads over the last few weeks is making me question my listenership. I wouldn’t mind an ad or two per day, but they seem to be on every story now, even the 2-minute ones!

This is just ridiculous. Before. And after. Every. Single. Segment. Come on…
