  • ADS In the Middle of Sentences

    The ads cut in in the middle of sentences out of nowhere. The hosts say “let’s take a break” or let’s pay some bills, but the ads don’t always come there. They just come randomly. They want us to pay for patreon, but if this is a preview of what patreon is like, I’ll hold on to my coins. The content of the show is hilarious but the way the ads cut in makes it frustrating to listen to.
