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?
Most have an outro/intro as well when coming back from ad break. Should be able to analyze the audio for those segments with some fair bit of confidence and place cuts.
Obviously won’t work on the fly but it could be done. I just skip the ads instead, but who knows if it will be a Black Mirror style future where you have to hear the ads.
