I'm talking about stuff thats frequently advertised on podcasts and other episodes of online series like "8sleep" (no idea how its spelled) or AthleticGreens or LiquidIV etc

Edit: is it banned to mention actual names, if not just message person if credible

I've near-perfectly insulated myself from all advertising, with podcasts being the only exception. As a result, I've become extra sensitive to ads and find the ones I'm forced to listen to in podcasts especially irritating. I can tolerate them at the beginning of an episode, but I hate being interrupted by them. Now, the only thing I associate with brands like Athletic Greens is these interruptions, so I simply decided to avoid them. Just yesterday, I ignored SquareSpace for the same reason when researching how to set up a homepage for my business.
