I'm not sure it's a very good story but the fx and stuff all has so much heart that's it's hard to dislike it. Overall we're having a lot of fun with it, even when we're kind of laughing at it rather than with it.
Popping back in to say that this is a really good show! Going right into the regular rotation, thanks for doing what you do.
Interesting, guess they started running ads recently. I wonder if they'll begin injecting them into older shows eventually, I know some hosts offer that as a service.
No apology necessary! Many of these are still ending up on lists that may or may not get listened to one day :)
I'm looking to avoid doing that and avoid ad-driven shows in general, hence the original question. I have a few that I tolerate it on, but largely looking to avoid it where possible.
Well dang, that's unfortunate.
Some of this is right in my wheelhouse. Thanks for the recs!
I assume the first one was a typo and you meant Cryptid Factor? Seems like a really cool show, but unfortunately opens straight up with ads. First one was for 1-800-Flowers and then on to one for Rocket Money.
I've listened to this one before! Pretty interesting show, but unfortunately opens with several minutes of ads. Latest episode is about two and a half minutes of ads right off the bad, although one is their Patreon.
Unfortunately not a thing on RSS, and I try to spend little time on YouTube. Thanks though!
Any corporate sponsored advertising. Platform, sponsorship, whatever.
The ads on their RSS feed seem to be auto generated and inserted. Lots of shows use that kind of service.
Very possible! The podcast host I use offers a few kinds of ad services so there's no telling. I don't use them so I'm not totally sure how they work, but I've seen the options when I log in.
