We've been getting a great service for 2 years now. They've been building a site without asking anything from us. Playing with ads here and there trying to keep things tastefull.

I understand why people aren't happy but you goto understand, they need to make a buck somewhere. The alternative is nothing, what so ever. You have suggestions? They have business people and they've made choices.  
 
Take it in stride, see what they'll do. Their second segment might be different and something that isn't time sensitive at all. What if they decide to just takl about mortal combat for an hour. What about waiting a week about this ruins your life? I guess I don't get it, as long as I have something to listen to every week I'm a happy camper. 
 
Wait till you see what they do with the podcast before you judge it. You don't know what it will look like. Once it's all said and done, then use good feedback.  Don't just say FU and post, write it down. They do read the forums. Just give em a shot at doing what they think is best for them to be profitable. In the same situation I'd do the same and so would you.
