Sponsorblock for Podcasts (lemm.ee)

As someone who aggressively adblocks everything, one of the final places that ads can still reach me is in annoying ad reads within podcasts. Youtube sponsorblock is incredible but it seems no one has yet adapted this for podcasts. Has anyone else managed to find a solution here? As far as i can tell in my googleing, this doesn't yet exist. Anyone else extremely interested in something that skips/removes sponsor segments from podcasts?

There's an app I use called "Snip'd" which uses AI to detect different chapter segments of your podcasts. It doesn't automatically skip anything for you but it does a pretty good job of finding and pointing out where the ads are and breaking the entire episode up into different chapters.

That sounds like an app begging to be modded to add an autoskip feature.

I love the idea of using AI for for ad skipping. Let it do something positive instead of just our jobs in the near future.
