Commercial ads, ugh!

Was looking forward to hearing this, it came highly recommended. Was super disappointed in the first five seconds as TWO (now Three) solid minutes of prerecorded commercials played. I dumped the cable box over a decade ago because of commercials.
Season 11 Episode 3: Roughly 13 minutes start to finish. 5 minutes worth of fluff (music and advertisements). 8 minutes worth of content. Ooof. 62.5% hot air.
