An overall good podcast but the commercials! Spinquest, ADT, Progressive. Monetization is all well and good, but this is way worse than old terrestrial radio! At least we didn't get the same 3 spots every 5 minutes.
A decent podcast but streaming source uses one stupid online casino add (my prize dot US) every 5 minutes It's just too annoying to continue to listen Other streamers don't ruin their clients feeds this way
