>Do people really actually like podcasts?
I do, I listen to >50 hours a month.
>I've tried many times, but I just don't get the value proposition: If I'm doing something else at the same time, I would rather listen to music because anyway I won't be focused enough to not lose track of the podcast every 30 sec. If I'm fully dedicated to the podcast, well I'd rather watch it as a video or read a book.

The primary times when I listen to podcasts is:
- While biking
- While doing manual work involving low mental stimulation (washing dishes, laundry, other cleaning, etc.)
- While taking a walk
If I have my eyes available, I watch video content. If my brain is occupied, I listen to music at most.
