Nothing that you are saying here has any commitment to what to expect, is all heresay. It's 100% ad hominem, to the person. That's a fault whether the direction is complimentary or derogatory. I personally really don't want to see vacuous empty comments like this.
were you trying to reply to someone else?
No, I'm saying they are hyping up some random podcast while saying sweet nothings. I really don't like empty hype. I want some actual content to posts that actually says something, not just links breathlessly encouraging me to go spend an hour listening.
And where did the ad hominem part arise?

I personally really don't care that you dislike podcasts, or don't have the time to click the link and spend five seconds reading the summary, or are lashing out because you had a bad day—can you do that somewhere else?
No, I'm going to advocate for more than empty posts. I should have some concrete expectations, some reason to click in, beyond "I like this". That's not good enough.
