  • Lost a long time listener due to excessive/repetitive ads

    I’ve been listening to AC since 2008/9 and always looked forward to a new episode. However— due to life—I hadn’t listened in about a year. I decided to make an effort to listen to the Weather on Exoplanets and was taken aback at the hard sell for multiple Patreons at the beginning of the show. More importantly, I was appalled by the ads every five minutes, including the same ad running more than once in one show. more

  • I used to love this show and the format …

    Now they’ve decided to insert ad breaks every 5 minutes and turned what was a fantastic educational podcast into a ad farming mess. What a shame.
