Podcasting versus Reading

An interesting discussion between Jordan Peterson and Vivek Ramaswami. This seems very weird to me: “…most people are a little slower reading than listening, and that means they are really capable of absorbing more complex material than they’re willing or able to read.”

I’m just the opposite. I don’t have the patience to listen to someone tell me something, and I don’t retain information well that I take in through my ears. It’s why I hated lectures in college, particularly when they were just repeating the textbook, which I could read myself much faster.

Light Posting

We’re driving up to Sequoia and Yosemite this afternoon for a few days. We’ll have the laptop, but probably not much time to post. We haven’t been there in years, and the waterfalls should be spectacular with all of the continuing snow melt from the very wet winter. Mammoth continued to have skiing into August (they just closed).
