My kid (adult) listens to pod casts throughout the day. While cooking, driving, working when appropriate.
Of course, having young ears helps.
I have been listening to audiobooks for nearly two decades now, and few technology advances have been as wonderful to me as that. I have had an Audible account nearly since they opened (I think) and have been getting three books a month from them for all these years...love it, just love it.
I had a two hour commute home yesterday (16 miles!!!!!!!) and if it weren’t for the audiobooks....I would have been out of my ever-lovin mind!
Also, I used to be a prolific, obsessive reader. For about ten years now, I haven’t been able to read a book. My eyes just can’t do it no matter what glasses I get, no matter what I do.
Audiobooks and podcasts have been a lifesaver for me.
