Not directly. The Archdiocese of Baltimore has paid for ad time on IHeart podcasts. When you download the podcast, a packet of adverts get inserted at the ad times in that podcast. These are selected by software, usually based on your location, so the adverts you hear aren’t necessarily the ads I hear, and the companies advertising don’t generally specifically place themselves in set podcasts.

Ok but consider - the archdiocese advertising on BtB accidentally is as hilarious as them advertising deliberately

Ueeeeghh today we are talking about kiddie didly and those who mask for them

Speaking as someone who was raised Catholic: whether placed algorithmically or by choice, commercials for Catholic churches on BtB definitely scans


TheGinger_Ninja0

Still funny

I’d love to know what makes the algorithm think that a white-ass Slavic gal like me from Warsaw, Poland needs to be advertised a dating show for Latinx ppl

Location. Anyone outside the USA just gets a standard clump of ads for other iheart podcasts.

And yet still nothing about the tangy genocide-abating crunch of Cool Ranch Doritos despite all Robert's free publicity. What is this world coming to?


Pax-Anders

Recently through Amazon music I've been getting brain pill ads lol

That’s superb.

We need Raytheon ads.

You know who'd never kill children? today's sponsor, Ray... oh, nevermind... just roll the ads

> You know who *won’t* molest your children then ask you for donations to cover the cost of the lawsuits? … Prah-ducts!!!

I got an AARP ad on mine the other day. Where's our 65+ bastard fans at?

Yikes. How many diddlers do they cover up?

I listen through PocketCasts in the UK and I only ever get ads for other podcasts. At this point I'd take some problematic ads just for the change of scene.

What gets advertised on BtB is always wild. I had a double take when I realize my actual college was being advertised to me.
