Anecdotally, I have noticed an increase in advertisements in the podcasts I listen to. I think this is more likely a sign of decline than a sign of the opposite.

Could it be instead a sign of increasing profitability of podcasts? (That advertisers are willing to pay for ads on podcasts.)

Maybe, or it could mean they have to do more ads to stay afloat, where before fewer ads were sufficing.
