Jim Dale is the GOAT of audio books. Also, I listen to ALL the podcasts at 1x speed so that I can hear the tone of the speakers so I'm with Aiden and Nick (and I think Slime) on this

2024-12-22 21:44:39 +0000 UTCI've accidentally bumped the podcast into 1.25x speed before. Hated it. It put it into uncanny valley range, where something felt off, but I couldn't quite figure it out.

2024-12-21 22:20:59 +0000 UTCMy brother has dyslexia and he is able to consume more books in a month than I can in a year by reading with my eyes. Sure, comprehension can be a little lower because you might lose focus for a bit. I bet if the boys had to do a book report they would be about equal in quality.

2024-12-21 17:38:52 +0000 UTCI audiobook a lot, I think it's almost the same as reading, I've never really missed any details doing it However doing it at any increased speed is criminal, it feels like turning an otherwise enjoyable experience into homework

2024-12-21 04:03:57 +0000 UTCI’m a 1.25x audiobook listener, I honestly would read physical books but I work 12 hour of monotonous hell shifts in restaurants so I need something to occupy the brain

Syd
2024-12-20 08:41:00 +0000 UTC1.5 x speed on audio books being the same as reading it is the most brain dead take, it low key should have been Lud's hot take on the main ep. Also if all zoomers listen to this at 1.5x speed, then Im a dog shit zoomer, timing is important in a comedy podcast lol.

Max Cooke
2024-12-20 00:07:24 +0000 UTCAudio books are fine distorting their voice by speeding it up is probably the biggest problem. I’d guess that Aiden reads at the speed Ludwig listens to his book but because it isn’t mashed together he will be able to remember it.
Dwayne Whittenton
2024-12-19 22:13:45 +0000 UTCthere's nothing inherently wrong with audiobooks, but there is a mental difference between reading and listening, as well as a difference between reading digitally or from a physical book. if you're curious about the subject, "reader, come home" by marianne wolf dives into the concept of "deep reading" and how it is lost in the digital age. many people listen to audiobooks due to not having time for the other option and that's a sad reflection of american work culture

2024-12-19 19:22:22 +0000 UTCbeing called a terrorist over audiobook discourse is crazy
Maya
2024-12-19 19:13:10 +0000 UTCPyall are terrorists listening to an audio book is fine. Listening to an audiobook at increased speed is also fine as long as he's able to understand what's being said. Cause even in a written medium alot of what the author intends is lost in translation but no Ludwig isn't wrong y'all are terrorists and slime needs to do research before talking shit
Chief
2024-12-19 18:32:34 +0000 UTCListening to audio books is just a different experience to reading. Hopefully, the narrator is putting some effort into their performance and trying to bring their craft to bear, but speeding that up is just the worst of every world.
Charlie
2024-12-19 18:27:58 +0000 UTCI think audiobooks are sick as fuck, and i can vividly tell you about every audiobook ive listened to.

Mike Hassall
2024-12-19 18:09:58 +0000 UTCMost people I know who Listen to audiobooks specifically mention in conversation that they listened to it instead of reading it, while I don’t think it’s “stupid” to say that; I do think it’s important to distinguish the difference between the two
zach
2024-12-19 17:52:00 +0000 UTCI don’t think I’ve ever seen a good argument for why listening and reading books are functionally different outside of spelling or pronunciation purposes. Some people process better visually and some process better in an audio format. If I’m playing an audiobook at 2x speed and retaining nothing, that’s really no different from skim reading a book imo (neither method is actual reading at that point). A small caveat is that some books are meant to be consumed visually, are footnote heavy, or involve jumping around between pages (e.g. House of Leaves or Choose-your-own adventure books), so those definitely would be impacted from audio vs visual. But your average fiction novel should be able to provide the same experience regardless of format.

2024-12-19 17:50:45 +0000 UTCI read books all through my childhood, and now that I'm an adult, and have a job where I have earbuds in and listen to audiobooks all day, I find that audiobooks are equivalent as long as you can understand it, and the tone it conveys, which also means that sometimes turning the speed up, messes with the tone and pacing of the storytelling, but can still be valid if you can interpret that while listening.

Zachary Morgan
2024-12-19 16:27:47 +0000 UTCSomething about hearing it aloud clicks with my brain more. Reading it and giving my brain the full authority to create the emotion of a scene doesn't work well when I can't imagine it myself.
Damon Patterson
2024-12-19 15:54:43 +0000 UTCI listen to audio books on 2x usually because they narrate was slower than I read and i can't stand it lol

Alessandro Belotti
2024-12-19 15:51:32 +0000 UTCInteresting, how does an audio book change anything? Is it just the fact that the narrator can voice characters?

2024-12-19 15:50:26 +0000 UTC1.5x is crazy but I do listen on 1.25x because 1x is so slow and I get bored

chris khounlo
2024-12-19 14:12:58 +0000 UTCI know Ludwig wasn’t using this as part of his argument but sometimes when I try to read a book I’ll have to re-read a page 4 times because I lose focus but with audiobooks I’m able to focus on and remember the content
Cumfart

2024-12-19 12:50:39 +0000 UTCQuit gatekeeping consuming content. Bro has ADHD he will understand the media better when it's at his pace. I have aphantasia (no pictures in my head) and ADHD I've read many of books and not experienced them at all. I still can understand and enjoy the media but audio books are better for me.

William Hargrove
2024-12-19 03:32:44 +0000 UTCI read 4-6 books a month, and I both listen and physically sit down and read. I think they are EQUALLY valid. The spped thing however I kinda agree with. I usually listen to my books at 1.2, and if I'm re listening something I go a max of 1.7. that being said I think people that are pretentious about physical reading vs listening suck and are the worst people involved in any book community on the internet. They tell blind people that they aren't really "reading" and take no account for any kind of disabilities. They suck and you shouldn't share this particular opinion with them (imo). It's gatekeeping.

2024-12-19 02:50:59 +0000 UTCI don’t think there’s anything wrong with audiobooks. I read and listen. But I refuse to let Ludwig think he’s right cause it’s a dumb argument. 1.5x is fast enough. Easier to retain when reading though

2024-12-19 02:36:23 +0000 UTCdon't give up on this months book club book y'all. it's super interesting and a very easy/short read
Tyler Horn
2024-12-19 01:47:52 +0000 UTCReading vs listening to a book are obviously very different experiences. But in the least pretentious way possible, I think discounting audio books sets a bad precedent because there are people who physically cannot read but are still able to “read”/understand the book, they’re just digesting it in a different way. It’s something that blind people hear a lot from sighted people, that their form of reading “doesn’t count” which can be pretty offensive, so I just wanted to respectfully push back on that idea
megamindcult
