I had a side gig that involved me driving every day for at least one hour, but usually more. I listened to all kinds of podcasts and audio books. But at some point, I realised I cannot process that much of information. That’s how I stopped, perhaps we humans aren’t designed to process that much daily.

I think it's fine if you accept it as entertainment and nothing more. That's why I don't get how people listen to audiobooks on 3x. The goal isn't to ingest as much as you can--the goal is to enjoy it and maybe learn something useful here and there.

It feels validating that other people have a similar experience. I simply can't take in that much information. It eventually starts making me feel terrible.

The big issue is that I'm not very good at moderating my intake. I'm a crack addict for information and one small dose will turn into a bender.
