Same. Also podcasts. The whole medium doesn't work for me at all. I'll try to get into some podcast I'm assured is up my alley, make it a couple minutes, then realize I've been zoning out for a solid ten minutes and haven't processed a word they've said. Talky video programs are sometimes OK. I can pay attention to them, at least, it's just that most aren't very good. I can do the dedicated-listening thing to music but the point of podcasts is supposed to be that you can listen to them while doing something else—almost none are worth dedicated listening time. I can't manage that. I miss too much to follow WTF they're talking about, so it's just noise, and I have enough of that as it is and don't need more. [EDIT] I also hate—hate—having the TV on as "background noise" so maybe that has something to do with it.
