I wanted to listen to the Otherworld podcast, but the first thing I hear is an ad localized for my IP-region. My instant reaction to those is to immediately hit pause and stop listening. I looked at their patreon and it has less posts than there are episodes, so I assume you can't even get ad free episodes from there.
Is there some way to filter ads out of podcasts, or a site that has feeds for podcasts with the ads cut out?
nope never mind turns out it was just the early episodes that didn't have ads baked in
