I worked for @podcastnotes for 2 years.

During that time, I summarized 500+ podcasts.

Here are 10 tips to become a more effective & efficient podcast listener:
1) Sample Before Committing

Before committing 2+ hours to a podcast, take 30 seconds to read the timestamps.

They'll give you a roadmap of what topics will be covered & what you can expect to learn.

You can also use the timestamps to skip over parts that don't interest you.
2) Up The Speed

99% of podcasts can be listened to at 1.25 or 1.5x speed without any decrease in listening pleasure.

Even the best speakers use filler words & speak slowly because they need time to think about their answers.

A 2hr podcast at 1.5x speed will save you 40 mins!
