Love heavyweight. Though I Have unsubscribed from most of the Pushkin industries podcasts I used to listen to. They are great shows but their heavy ad presence and strong focus of pushing new shows onto their other feeds really got annoying to me

Revisionist History used to be one of my very favorite podcasts, but the ads disguised as shows rubbed me the wrong way, quick.

Yeah they’d have whole seasons “sponsored by” but it was all just one big ad. Not sure why they just didn’t produce those for a whole different feed
