Two Peas in a Podcast

What podcasts are you listening to?

Well, I’d love to say I’m listening to some podcasts. I’m so far behind in this that every time I hear podcasts mentioned, I hear a little voice in my head that says, “You are too far behind the times!” Lol!

I’ve started a few podcasts from time to time, but I have a bad problem of getting too easily distracted when I’m simply listening to something. I can read a book and be so in tune that I won’t hear you calling my name, and I can watch something and be highly focused; yet, when I set something to audio and start doing something else, whether it be driving, cleaning or writing, I may not catch everything the speaker is saying.

And I’ve really tried. The only time I can be focused with precision with audio is if I’m walking. This does work; however, when I’m walking, I try not to be distracted from those whom I might meet along the way. It seems rude to me to walk passed someone and not say hello, and more so, I don’t like to have my ears plugged when I’m outdoors. So, I’m in a bit of a predicament. Ha!

However, if I were to dive into some podcasts, and the few I’ve listened to before are Dr. Mark Rutland, Pastor TD Jakes, Pastor Jentezen Franklin, Dr. Laura Schlesinger, and a few audio books like Lord of the Rings (the one that used to be on Spotify was phenomenal!).

I’ve heard there’s some dynamic ones; so, maybe if I would just settle in to listen, I’d find some great ones!

  1. Ahh, I was just about to ask about this Lord of the Rings on Spotify. It’s a shame I missed it! Anyways, I understand how you feel about being unable to focus on listening while doing something. I was very much this same way until I stopped caring about the words I missed and just tried to follow along without putting too much pressure into it. It’s a bit annoying not being able to catch everything but I think I’ve gotten slightly better about it.

    • That’s great! 😊 … and yes. I was bummed when the LOTR was removed. I’m sure there are others, but that was amazing! It was dramatized; so, it was almost like the narration of the movie, not the same voice but rather that same intriguing narration. Maybe they’ll bring it back sometime…hopefully.
