Good but could be great

The info is great, but 2 minutes of content and 1+ minute of ads means I have to listen to 3+ hours of ads in order to get through all of the content. Would be much better if multiple questions were combined into one podcast so that listeners don’t have to listen to the intro and outro over and over and over, which limits the usefulness of the material.
