I spend a lot of time listening to podcasts or listening just to audio of YouTube videos.
Most of what I listen to is fully scripted and edited, often with just one person talking. A small amount of what I listen to have two people with unscripted conversations that are edited to keep the episode on topic.
I’ve tried listening to fully unedited live conversation podcasts with anywhere from 2 to 4 people talking, and every one of them has driven me absolutely crazy. I usually pick episodes based on the topic in the title, to always find that either nobody in the podcasts knows/cares about the topic, or only one person knows about it. It results in conversations turning into mindnumbing rambling about nothing or one person explaining a topic to another person who is uninterested or just stupid.
If there is a podcast with multiple hosts that actually share an interest in a topic and keep it reasonably on topic I would really like to try it out.
That’s believable, but it’s just not what I see in the words even after a quick reread. To me it reads like they skipped that bit. A few examples probably would have gone a long way to changing that and helping with suggestions
