My god the sheer number of ads (and the same ones at that!) in each and every episode lately-and now at the start too!

Just put the fry’s in the bag
That loud dog mouth sounds ad is making me consider deleting this show I normally listen to everyday
Unfortunately I couldn’t find anywhere else to provide feedback on episode basis.
I like the overall show, but starting to get really annoyed with the US-Trump focus. We just need to know the winner and policies that impact Australia/World, not the White House Retirement home useless drama.
