Same photo, but I used an Instagram filter at the time:

    I HATE iheart radio if only because of the ads, I love a lot of the content but I would take the full force of the monkey’s paw to the face to get rid of them

      I worked as a board op when I was there. If I had the chance, I dropped audio levels by 5-10dB for commercials.

      I listened to a couple IHR podcasts, got supremely sick of the ads and deleted both of them. Now I watch to see the source of new subs and don’t bother if it’s IHeart.

      I agree on the podcast front, and what makes it worse it’s for their own podcasts which aren’t generating them any revenue so why have 5 minutes of ads 3 x per show for your own stuff. Not unless the other podcasts generate revenue through ads, but I doubt it, just getting you used to it for when it becomes a Black Mirror episode and you must watch your ads as prescribed by the government (aka business).

        it’s really a great bonus of knowledge fight, I can catch up on old episodes going from opening to closing to opening with no ads
