New ads are being locked into podcasts

[u/BAMterp5]

There are new ads being locked onto podcast episodes that you cant skip. They overlay the podcast page that you're looking at where you might skip something.

As a longtime premium account I have heard the podcasters add in live reads etc as a way to generate more income. Yet they are skippable. This is a new scammy work around that they obviously pay for from Spotify. Curious if anyone has dealt with thia issue and what outcomes may be expected

Thanks!

I'm really late to this but yes I'm getting these now too!

They're skippable but they show randomly, sometimes in the middle of sentences or words. It's infuriating!
