My Question or Issue

I want to report a podcast channel - https://open.spotify.com/show/4fKKqtQGnDF2F6WJel7ZED?si=4b5262c539884e5c

to be removed as it purports to be a song but are just minutes of random ads.

 

The description of every "podcast" says "Listen to the eps all the way through including the ads. Once you've done that the ads will disappear" except EVERY ENTIRE episode are just ads and make it seem if the 3+ mins of ads are listened to the songs would play but it doesn't. This isn't a podcast w ads but spam & falsified content tricking ppl to listen for revenue

Cannot report content as it was a podcast.  It seems to have been removed though
