It is interesting (I don't know if that's the right word, but I can't think of another) to see how podcasts have become such a target for advertising. I remember when I first listened to podcasts in like 2008 I'd pretty rarely hear an ad, and when I did it was usually some gimmicky product from a company no one had ever heard of. But nowadays I can't think of any podcasts that I listen to that don't have ads, save for Hardcore History, and it's frequently an ad for a big company or service like Door Dash, Turbo Tax, etc.
I know he's an outlier due to the enormity of his podcast, but it's been said[1] that Joe Rogan now makes $75,000 per episode
That's a long way from his early days of being sponsored by the Fleshlight.
