I just wanted a way for parents to know that some of you have reached out about ads they did not think should be on a kids and family podcast. In all cases - I agree. I have turned them off on my end while we figure out how to properly block unwanted ads. Please let me know if you get any of concern. 

Update: Ads were turned back on after blocking lots of ad categories. 

Thank you for your understanding.
