Without fail, I always take the broadcast, rip it into an audio file, and listen to it during the week. Today I had to drive somewhere for 1.5 hours round trip, and I have a LOT of fun listening to Defected.
The main thing about Defected is it is NOT about information. It's about thinking processes and un-programming your thinking. This is done via discussions of really significant and interesting data points, but they also have a lot of laughs, jokes, etc, etc.
It's like a private talk show that just rolls along for quite an extended period of time.
I tend to watch my podcasts when I'm doing hobby gaming, reading, model building or studying new skills.
I actually have some issues with doing a single thing at once, and I almost crave a raised sensory load because I can't let my brain idle very long or else I get bored with whatever I'm doing.
I am a heavy multitasker with near necessary reliance on using my extensive parallel processing.
So... From my point of view, you've got the right idea.
This is essentially how I consume my Shimcast, Shamer, Crowder and Don Jr. content.
Sometime during last year, I hit a wall with information overload. After going down rabbit holes in 2015 onwards, and then tracking Q since the end of 2017, not to mention using all of that as a basis for engaging with my environment (aka society, nation, politics, etc), I simply hit information overload.
Nowadays, I simply don't need that much information. So I don't listen to podcasts like I used to up until 2021. What I really want now is analysis and discussion that help develop my way of understanding the information that I have and that is continually coming in.
Which is why I really like defected (I also tune in to Power hour with BB and JH). For me, it's all about thought process refinement.
But also, along with the increasing information load in the Q years, I simply cannot sit in front of a video playing on my desktop and watch and listen. Or, if I do, it's for something I can veg out on, something that I can just watch without thinking. In other words, brain down time.
So yeah, I listen as I go about other daily tasks.
I have literally no idea why someone downvoted you.
But yeah, I am an information addict. I love learning new things and being informed about everything I can be. I'm sure one day I'll get overwhelmed too though haha
Shows like this really need to be segmented or have timestamps. I see 3 hours and just close the tab.
Fair call. It's not everyone's cup of tea.
