I think people are making too big a deal out of this. Popular podcasters do make money through Patreon for example, not everything comes down to advertising.

And for frank, honest commentary, I think I would rather not have advertiser influence over podcasts, just like the news.
And many people do podcasts just out of passion or a hobby...they are more like blogs than anything else.

- tus88 7y agoI am not a huge podcast listener, but I understand some of the most supported people on Patreon are podcasters. I also use Patreon, however I support YouTubers as I find videos much more engaging than podcasts. So in general yes, I am willing to pay creators through platforms like Patreon, as I guess millions of people are.
