I've tried going faster but found that I had to concentrate too hard on listening to leave time for reflection during the listening, which is the whole point for me of listening podcasts. I wonder if a blind person struggles with similar issues, where they have to dose the speed reading to allow them to actually think about what they heard.
- sobani 9y agoInstead of listening to a podcast/audiobook once on normal speed, you could try listening to it twice on double speed. * Especially audiobooks generally have only one core idea so even if you miss a part, you're not missing much. * By listing twice, you will 'revisit' the topic, increasing comprehension. * Most podcasts/audiobooks actually don't have a lot of new ideas (especially after you've heard a lot of them), so in those cases you're only wasting half the time.
