Hey there, @aressaj. 👋
Sorry to hear that you're encountering that error message.
Does this issue only occur when you attempt to listen to podcasts?
Or, do you experience it when you listen to music as well from your Chrome browser?
Have you noticed this with specific podcasts? Or, any podcast?
Could you provide an example of a pod this happens with?

Troubleshooting:
I've enabled a trace on your Pandora account in case we need to share this with our engineering team.
I would recommend trying out these steps (feel free to skip any that you've already tried):
1. Update Chrome.
2. Clear Browsing Data (including browsing history, cache and cookies):
Click on the icon with 3 vertical dots in the upper right (located on the browser toolbar).
Select More Tools and then Clear Browsing Data.
On this screen, please select All time for the time range, and then click on Clear Data.
Restart the browser and go back to pandora.com.
3. Bypass the Pop-up Blocker for Pandora:
Again, click the 3 vertical dots in the upper right, and select Settings.
Scroll down and click Advanced at the bottom.
Under Privacy and security, click Site Settings.
Click Popups and redirects. Under allow make sure pandora.com is listed. If not listed, click Add and enter: https://www.pandora.com, then click Add.
4. Turn off extensions.
Disable HTML5 Autoplay, Adblock, and NoScript, or allow www.pandora.com within them. To do that, go to chrome://extensions/ on your web browser.
5. Allow Pandora within your firewall or antivirus.
If you are using an internet firewall or anti-virus program, it could be blocking portions of our site. Try allowing access to pandora.com within those programs, and then try visiting our site again. If this doesn't help, then try disabling such programs entirely as a test to see if this affects your issue.
6. Try a different browser.
Using a different browser such as Firefox may help.
7. Restart your computer and try Pandora again.
