Were podcasts that are ostensibly about something always this rambling, or has my tolerance gone down?

@MrHenko Not just you, I got rid of many podcasts I used to enjoy but no longer did for that same reason. Made room for some excellent new ones, so win-win.

@MrHenko At @HemisphericViews we work hard to keep things tight at around 45 minutes per episode, and when we go over there's usually a good reason. Respect the listener's time!

@MrHenko Not just you. Lazy presenters wasting everyone’s time. It might take you 15 minutes to cut 5 minutes of fluff, but if you’ve got even 100 listeners you just saved the world 500 minutes!

@jeremycherfas "Each of these Quarterly Meetings were large and sat near eight hours. Here I had occasion to consider that if is a weighty thing to speak much in large meetings for business... In three hundred minutes are five hours, and he that improperly detains three hundred people one minute, besides other evils that attend it, does an injury like that of imprisoning one man five hours without cause." -- The Journal of John Woolman, 1758

@pimoore Glad to hear I'm not the only one. Part of the problem is probably that I'm falling out of love with the format of more "personality driven" podcasts.

@canion That's a good principle! I haven't listened to Hemispheric Views (yet?), but I'll put it on my mental list for when I want to add more podcasts to my queue.

@jeremycherfas That's a good way to look at it, and Eat This Podcast is a great example of a podcast that gets to the point. 👍🏻
