Audio books are fine IF you’re that busy. However, how about just read a book?

With respect to GOT, in the Book version, “you have to generate all of that in your mind.”

The same show runners got really tired of the work and became lazy in the last seasons, thus, destroying the franchise. “With 'Game of Thrones,' HBO is doing the work for you...been to Croatia and hired a cast of thousands and so on,” - No, Thanks. NEVER employ Benioff and Weiss again.

I've never been able to listen to audio books; I prefer to just read. If I'm driving then I listen to music or podcasts or YouTubers/content creators who discuss current events.

I've never been able to listen to audio books; I prefer to just read. If I'm driving then I listen to music or podcasts or YouTubers/content creators who discuss current events.

Audio books never worked for me. Other people in my college classes taped their lectures but that's too distracting and takes up too much concentration when I drive. Gimme music.

That is simply incorrect. Human beings are said to be about 80% sensual alone by visual impressions. The rest of 20% altogether comes from hearing , smelling , tasting , touching... According to that nonsense theory above a blind person would easily become healthy if you only give them a very good headset and audio player. That’s of course not the case, as still 80% of senses are disabled. I don’t believe this study and recommend to put it just right into the next available garbage bin.

I prefer to read a book, but I do like to listen to audio books in bed as it helps me nod off.
