I loveee the style of show and how everything is set up, but 3 ads for a ~15 minute show is excessive. Just be ready to skip past them.
I’ve actually stopped listening to any recent episodes. The amount of ads, especially back to back and then on repeat is distracting from the history.
Stop with the same ads over and over!
Last episode was listed as 15 minutes. Which was kinda true. The history stuff was 15 minutes, but there was another 10 minutes of ads. Now I know you gotta make money with ads, but does half your products have to be ads?
I enjoy the concept of this podcast, brief summaries of interesting incidents in history. But the non-stop ads, they nearly equal the time given to the subject, is just too much to tolerate. And there are way too many reruns for me to ever consider a payed subscription to avoid the ads.
