The commercials are louder than the podcast audio, which completely ruins the listening experience
Apple Podcasts1InMyOpinionMinionUnited States20 days ago - Uninformed rubbish
Uninformed and inane podcast. Radical political drivel. Used to be good, but now biased and ignorant.

Please fix the issues with commercials being louder than the podcast audio its ruining the listening experience.
Apple Podcasts3InMyOpinionMinionUnited States2 months ago - Loud commercials
There’s seems to be more commercials playing during the podcasts now and the audio for the commercials is louder than the podcast audio (which is illegal in certain jurisdictions). I don’t mind ads but the loudness is ruining the podcast for me.
