Not only is this an excellent listen, but it's also extremely entertaining to hear Ronan Farrow attempt all the different voices and accents (with varying degrees of success). It's also even better with the slight pitch modulation you get from speeding up the read -- something I do because I'm a busy, busy boy who simply doesn't have the enough free time!!!! Shoutout to the Libby App for allowing me to do this for free too.

I’m obsessed with audiobooks, and 1.8x speed is my sweet spot. It’s fast enough that I don’t get bored, but not so fast that I miss anything.

something unlocked in me when I started getting into audiobooks! I put them on while I drive, fold laundry, cook, etc and now I can’t stop - my favorites recently have been nonfiction/related to current events so in a way it feels very much like a podcast substitute but with a longer runtime. I’d recommend to anyone who’s been struggling with attention/trying to make it through a physical book, it’s like an easier alternative to sitting still that still allows you to grow your brain/expand those reading comprehension skills! Libby has free audiobooks with a library card, Spotify premium also includes certain audiobooks and there are plenty of other resources online
