I use PlayerFM but they might have changed the name? I don't think I paid money for this. Hmm. Maybe I did, but it was a one time thing and it must have been cheap because I'm cheap as fuck.

Google Podcasts?

no thats the worst offender :stahp

Isn't it the podcast creator that's putting the ads in?

I thought that originally, but unless Jim Cornette lives in a house right next to me and supports local businesses here, I think ads are rotated geolocationally.

Can confirm that Pocketcasts has ads that break into podcasts. Not every time, but sometimes.

That's not Pocketcasts.
What is a dynamically inserted podcast ad?
A dynamically inserted ad is a piece of audio (referred to as the ‘creative’ from here) that is recorded and produced separately from a podcast episode. The creative is ‘stitched’ into the podcast episode file at the time of download when the ad targeting conditions are met. This is opposed to a ‘baked-in’ ad which is part of the original audio file and isn’t dynamically replaced.
The advantage of SSAI (server-side ad insertion) over baked-in ads is that you can serve different creative to listeners of the same podcast episode through several parameters including where they are located (geography), device type (Apple or Android) and which app they’re using to listen (Apple Podcasts etc.) among other things. Additionally, the same creative can be served across many different podcasts. Or, SSAI can be used to replace an older creative with a more recent creative.
If done well, a listener won’t be able to tell the difference between a dynamically inserted host-read ad and a baked-in ad.
Pocketcasts has a feature that lets you always skip the first or last "X" amount of seconds if a podcasts always has an ad at the front or back of a show. It's user defined so you have to do it manually on each show though.

Wow didn't know that.
TBH I only listen to Conan podcast, and those are read by him and are hilarious.

Is this on a free version then? I listen to a million shitty podcasts and never heard an ad, that isn't part of the actual podcast
Edit :oh Nevermind just read the post above

It's time to liberate podcasts and make them ad free, they should be subsidized.

The state should control the means of production. I only want free state free podcasts discussing state approved topics, such as why gaming PCs should be illegal.
