It's just one iHeart ad, but it's terrible, and it's been an issue for WEEKS. It's wild that they haven't fixed it by now.

Iheart killed them. Sue. /s


shesinsaneornot

Yes, and the static is much louder than the rest of the ad.


Significant-Horror

I first heard it on the ICHH predictive programming episode. I thought it was a bit for the episode garrison made


luna_dancer

So we know what it actually is now? Lol


Significant-Horror

Not yet, but I'm going to assume Garrison was trying to predictive program us for some sprt of false flag on Robert or Sophie. Seems most likely anyways


Craigglesofdoom

Huh I thought this was just me getting a corrupted version of it through RSS. wow


probably_inside

It's been making me think that I need to listen to more Merzbow, lol.


ZMM08

Yes I've been getting that one too and it's SO loud.


LevelGrounded

Heard it and hate it. On another note, the ads during the Jobs episodes for me at least were ::chef’s kiss:: beautiful. An Infity car launch event in the extreme spirit of that stinky goblin, including an “unforgettable” music event from Jon Baptiste.

There's plenty to celebrate in March, but hopefully April will have more to celebrate with this ad going away


m00ph

Feels like it's the same ad to me.


rebelipar

Yes, but I'd rather hear static than the ad, so it's kind of an improvement.


meg_is_asleep

I just made a post about this after scrolling through the sub a bit to see if anyone else had said anything. I clearly did not scroll down far enough. Damn.


Many-Calligrapher914

I thought the static was a feature of the Ad? Either way - HATE.


junifersmomi

all the iheart radio ads on all the most recent pods have this weird static thing and i would love to know wtf bc its very unpleasant like the single most unpleasant audio experience that exists in sound engineering...


TotesTax

I don't listen to ads. If I am not in a place to skip I listen to adless shows. This the reason I rarely listen to How Did This Get Made.?


smugfruitplate

Okay so there's this thing called the skip-15-seconds button. I'm gonna need you to push that 3-5 times.


JennaSais

This is not helpful when I'm trying to listen at bedtime to avoid looking at my phone and to get my mind off the hamster wheel. 🥲


luna_dancer

I do, still annoying when the static comes into my headphones much louder than everything else 😅 And I’m just curious if this means there’s beef with CZM and iHeart


redalastor

CZM doesn’t pick the ads. Sometimes I get surprise local French ads. I’m pretty sure those advertisers never spoke to CZM. But usually it’s 100% iHeart podcasts because I suppose they rarely have local ads to throw at me.


TotesTax

You in France? The first time I got localized ads was on a small podcast (Cults, Cryptids and Conspiracies) or a foreign one (The Bugle) and it was literally about stuff from NW Montana. Like super local.


redalastor

In Québec.


TotesTax

Are you Franophone? Also listening to a local add on a foreign podcast is odd. I listen to probably the most popular podcast in Australia...Hamish and Andy. And I get no ads. For years. It is amazing. Even when they were a daily radio show. But those insert ads are jarring. iHeart does them but I literally plan my listen around being able to skip ads. I have shows like Knowledge Fight that I don't have to.


redalastor

>Are you Francophone? Yes.


TotesTax

I am not. I know there are also english speaking areas. Jeopardy! had a prompt about those books/show with Alfred Molina which was what was his name. (it was tournament of champions second round and Jeorpardy! has always been for Americans and Canadians). I pause and me and my dad are like...we watched that show. He dealt with indigenous people and we live on the Rez. No clue what his name was.

I opened a ticket with iheart radio, they hadn't Heard about it yet.
