Great content...too many ads

iGreeley•10/10/2026

Long time fan. Pod was fabulous. Now too many ads. Makes it difficult to listen. Sadly, I'm moving on...

Annoying ads

Carlapodcast•9/17/2026

Like the content (when played), but spend A LOT of time clicking through the ads. Seems like ads are 50+% of the podcast-so annoying. I gave up. Not worth it to try and stop the constant ads.

Soulless corporate takeover

C.D.R. Poet•8/31/2026

Such a shame to see a soulless corporate takeover of what had been a quirky and original show. Podcasting is supposed to be all about fostering that kind of independent spirit, and the wealthy want to do to it what they do to everything else great that others make: hollow it out until it becomes an uncanny shell of itself, because they are uncanny shells of people who are not only not creative but anti-creative. Shame shame shame. Give the show back to its creators.

So cool

It’s so interesting

Not the same…

It feels like this show got less good the less Dylan was featured!? What’s up with this?
