Why Normal Ad Blockers Can't Block Podcast Ads

Browser and network ad blockers stop network requests to advertising domains. Podcast ads arrive inside the episode audio, so there is no network request to block. This Podcast ad-blocker is different.

Creator-Friendly Podcast Ad Skipping

STFUAI downloads the publisher's episode normally and skips identified ranges during playback. It does not publish a stripped copy of the episode.
