Effective listening of podcasts/recommended podcasts
Listening to podcasts has been a major discovery for me. In the beginning I was listening to just a couple podcasts and made sure to listen to each of their new episodes. Recently I discovered a few more effective strategies when listening to podcasts which I want to share with you.
First, it’s much more effective and satisfying to subscribe to a bunch of high quality podcasts and only listen to the episodes that sound truly interesting. Second, you can start listening pretty much any podcast from 1 minute mark and some even further, such as 5 minutes, and not miss a thing. This is due to advertisements in the beginning, slow introduction and fluff in general. Finally, when an advert comes, skipping in 15 seconds intervals is very effective for getting back to listening actual content.
Do you know any additional strategies, tips and tricks to get the most out of podcasts?
Additionally, I’m curious to hear what podcasts fellow HN readers with similar interests are listening to. To give you a short background, I’m a final year Computer Science student; full-stack developer, with focus on front-end development; interested in entrepreneurship, mastery and balanced, healthy living. If you have anything to share or want to show your own subscription list, please do!
