I hardly (essentially never) listen to radio or podcasts because 1) I can "listen" at least twice as fast as they talk. (I tend to watch some stuff on Youtube at 2x speed.), and 2) it takes them forever to reach a point. I understand 'teasing' the topic, but I find it incredibly frustrating to isten to the equivalent of a half-hour shaggy dog story.

Now I understand that they tend to have sponsors who want my ears and attention, and paying subscribers who evidently like that format, but I'm not one of them. It's like being force to watch/listen to one of those peurile Vox 'Splainers on a subject you know well, but want to hear what someone else thinks.

So I'll pass.
