I’ve tried this before and have mixed feelings about it.
1. Speed-listening certainly increases the number of words I hear, but does it actually increase the amount of ideas I absorb?
2. To what degree does speed-listening impact my ability to engage fully in normal-speed human conversations?
(Also, do some podcast producers speed up their recordings and edit out silences before publishing? For example, I suspect a16z does this with their podcasts.)
- linuxliaison 9y agoI certainly edit out those silences from my podcast. Often when I'm listening back, those pauses are just too long, especially when you're the only one talking. In regards to speed-listening, I just don't think it's a good idea. If you're rushing through anything (or at least feeling rushed), more often than not, you're not truly enjoying it.
