I don’t like when podcasts start with a minute or so of clips from the show as teasers. Im already listening, I clicked, i don’t want to hear people say the same shit twice.

Same
It's so stupid
yes
So true
And it's always so dramatic and out of context.
I agree. I maybe see the benefit for a podcast over an hour so you know what's covered but to do it for a 10 minute podcast. It takes 10 percent of the show time.
Me too
Yes. Let all that is spoken in the pod come in its own time, leading up naturally.
That and when they bleep out one word of the clip it is twice as annoying.
It’s audio clickbait
I hate this too. It’s a new editing style that gen z is crazy about. I see it all them time on YouTube now too.
means you’re far enough down the rabbit hole. most are not.
I’ve made it to the Warren.
A lot of podcasts these days are just ripped audio from a youtube video.
I get it for efficiency but the first 30 seconds or so are what youtube plays as a preview in your recommended feed. So there's a certin amount of click bait there.
Exactly. I berate these podcasters and threaten unsubscription.
Just announce the point and dive evermotr deeply. That is the winning format.
Something else that's annoying, that I've noticed in more and more podcasts recently is that the ads start in the middle of a sentence. Not sure if this is some kind of scientifically proven manipulation tactic to get people to pay more attention to the ad, or just crappy ad injector AI.
Ya it’s really annoying. I think it’s lazy ad auto injection.
