podcast ads

Mid-episode sponsor messages

Podcast ads are advertisements delivered during podcast episodes, typically read by the host or inserted as prerecorded spots.

They appear at the beginning (pre-roll), middle (mid-roll), or end (post-roll) of episodes.

Host-read ads often feel more personal and conversational than traditional commercials: I always skip past the podcast ads.

The format has become a major revenue source for podcasters and a marketing channel for brands seeking engaged audiences.
