If you're pulling from YouTube I think yt-dlp has the option to cut and stitch videos back together with sponsorblock (not default option). Maybe you could use -f m4a with that option, idk.
I read an explanation on reddit why it doesn't exist for audio platforms, basically it's against TOS and your app will lose API access, never looked into it further tho.
If someone knows if this is possible please let me know too.
Excellent, I was not aware of this. Most of the podcasts in YT form have sponsorblock entries. And yt-dlp has an easy command:
--sponsorblock-remove Category
Interesting feature from ytdlp. Another reason why sponsor block might not be feasable for podcasts are inidividualized advertisements. There are few podcasts which e.g. have different ads depending for which country you are coming from. So going just by timecodes isnt an option.
