5 minute ad breaks every 15 minutes kinda ruin the experience.

I'm using antennapod because I had suspicions based on the ads I was getting that PocketCasts was selling the info of podcasts in my queue/listening history. After that I read their privacy policy to confirm that's something they do and deleted my account/the app

edit: important to add, I had a paid subscription account and they still appeared to be selling data on me

If I remember correctly, the app was originally built by an Australian public broadcaster and then sold to WordPress Matt, so yeah.
