How do some podcasts have location-based ads when my podcast player doesn't have location permissions?

It is important to note that a VPN isn't the only way to alter an IP address. It is currently the most viable and safe way. You can use a proxy server or a tor browser (depending on the node) as alternatives.

[Post-Match Thread] Arsenal F.C. vs. West Ham United

I'm not blaming the refs. This was a woeful Arsenal performance. There is no way a team that can't break down a low block will win the league title, in this day and age. Zinchenko has been a liability. There were multiple TERRIBLE back passes that he made. ESR, Reiss and Nketiah offered barely anything off the bench. Odegaard, Jesus, and Saka were tired but showed more attacking impetus. Martinelli has hit a bad patch and I think being on the bench might help him. 80% of his issues are his own and 20% with the lack of link up play from Zinchenko. There is a lot to fix before I can enthusiastically say we are favorites for the title.

Nothing like doing a bunch of compliance training while your manager slow walks your promotion. I don't think I'll ever work in consulting again. I'm doing Senior Software Engineer level of tasks, while getting paid an entry level salary. I'm certain that slow walking the promotion is a tactic - like a carrot on a stick.

[Post-Match Thread] Arsenal F.C. vs. PSV Eindhoven

I saw nothing to be critical of this evening. Each player brought more good than bad. Even players I was doubtful of, brought a lot against PSV. I was happy to see Havertz having more control in his hold up play. ESR, Nelson and Vieira came on and the team looked like it had stepped up to another level. Bring on the spuds, they will be mashed. COYG!
