LOVED the podcast, HATED the interruptions
I’m really loving this podcast, as I grew up watching Mr. Rogers but didn’t know about all the magic behind his messages. The podcast is so inspiring and thoughtful and entertaining, and I find myself so moved by so many of the stories in the show. However, I just don’t think I’ll be able to listen to another I Heart Podcast production, as the commercial breaks are atrocious! In each episode, they break in MID SENTENCE to run commercials, and then literally 2-3 minutes later, the episode breaks for more commercials. In episode 3, they broke in the middle of Mr. Rogers explaining how he felt when his dog died. In episode 4, they broke in the middle of a parent explaining her child was in a coma. And then they ran really raucous concert promotion ads (among others) until the point when the mood was completely killed before the podcast resumed. I listen to podcasts all the time, and I’ve never experienced such horrible interruptions. I love this podcast and will continue, but literally am incensed every time they break into the program mid-sentence for their commercial breaks. So unprofessional.

I really loved this series, especially the wonderful Ashley C Ford and Eve Ewing as guests (perhaps I’m biased!) but the one downside is that it seems to have double the normal amount of ads which can take away from the flow of the story. I’ve listened through the series twice though!

This podcast is something special but the ads are poorly placed and too many.
