Ads on premium podcast. No, not from the podcaster.

Reopening this again to state the obvious. Ads are coming from deezer, no reason why an American podcast from years ago would start injecting Dutch ads in the podcast. I've listened to the podcast completely before and I'm in the process of doing a 2nd run through it, and now it has ads. The podcast is over 10 years old. The podcaster has its own ads already, which are part of the episode(not injected before it)

 

Please remove the ads

Hi ​@pcmoreno !

 

Podcasts aren't coming from Deezer . Deezer only forwards the podcast feeds.  

As a Premium user, you may receive advertising or sponsored messages when playing a podcast .

Podcast ads appearing in a language other than the podcast's primary language can occur for a few reasons, including:

Regional Targeting:
Some podcast platforms serve ads based on your location, not necessarily your language settings. If you're in an area where a different language is dominant, you might see ads in that language. 

Podcast Creator Inclusion:
Some podcast creators directly include ads within their audio files, and these ads may be in a different language than the podcast itself. 

Ad Platform Algorithm:
Ad platforms like Google Ads may use algorithms to determine which language ads to show, sometimes even to multilingual users. 

Multilingual Ads:
Podcast advertising is increasingly global, and some companies are producing multilingual podcasts and ads to reach wider audiences. 

 

To address the issue:

Check your location settings: Ensure your account's country settings and your device's IP address are correct.
Consider your VPN: If using a VPN, make sure it's not affecting your location.
Contact Support: If the issue persists, reach out to the podcast platform's support for assistance.
