Maybe I'm just odd. I've listened to no more than a handful of podcasts in my entire life.
If I want to learn something, I'll read it. Which I can do 20x faster than listening to a podcast.
So I don't have a favourite podcast episode. And certainly not for 2021!
- andrewl 5y agoOne nice thing about podcasts is I can listen to them while I’m driving, if I'm not in the mood for music. The same goes for when I'm walking. And although you can read on a train, I sometimes find I can't if the train is swaying too much. It's nice to have podcasts available at those times. And if the people on the podcast are speaking slowly, you can speed it up.
- fredm-de 5y agoI usually listen to podcasts for about 6 hours per week while working out. Mostly these podcasts offer a shallow introduction into a topic, often even point towards the literature behind it. Half of the books I read this year were about things for which podcasts have sparked my interest.
