Vulgar podcast suggestions, can't be removed

Vulgar podcast suggestions, can't be removed

I've never listened to a podcast on Spotify, but my home screen has a dedicated section to podcasts that can't be removed. Furthermore, some of the material suggested on there is totally inappropriate.

 

I am not interested in "the pornhub podcast", "the sh*tshow" (all their episodes seem to be vulgar and about s*x), or whatever podcast you showed me today with a picture that just says "hail sat*n".

 

I pay for your premium subscription, but I can't use your app with others around who might think I actually watch this garbage and judge me, or in front of children. Stop putting this sh*t on my screen!

Hey @swamponions,

 

Thanks for reaching out and welcome to the Community.

 

We appreciate your report and will make sure that it's taken into account. It seems also that other Spotify users also mentioned they'd like to see this feature changed and posted an idea. You can add your support there by up-voting the idea. We'll inform on any developments there, if there are any. So make sure to subscribe, if you haven’t already. 

 

Hope this is useful. The Community is here if you have any questions.

You're scamming people into signing up for premium to get out of seeing ads only to present these ads as "suggestions". Whoever greenlighted this needs to be sent to a concentration camp. I'm unsubscribing before my premium renews Monday.

For me the issue actually went away a few months ago, I think they updated it.... Unfortunate you still have them though. Completely absurd to be shoving this in peoples faces. Imagine if you had kids using your spotify or if a coworker saw "pornhub podcast" suggestions on your screen. So stupid and, honestly, degenerate

 

Try following some non-**bleep** podcasts like jordan peterson or whatever, maybe it will just suggest those instead
