Yeah, same, but I have a horrible feeling you have to *watch* him instead to get this and I really can't be arsed with youtube videos

Yeah my impression is there’s two different JPs. There’s the Meaning book one, who writes stuff, and the culture war one, who’s on YouTube. There’s some connection between the two, but it’s pretty obscure.

It's not well organised for people like me who are nosy about what the fuss is but like walls of text to read and not videos!

Well we both read Slate Star Codex, Meaningness and Ribbonfarm, right? that's a pretty self-selected audience...

True, maybe we're all the same person, traveling backwards and forwards in time...

We're all the same person but JBP is two :-D Podcasts, as often the case, are the answer.

Maybe I should get over my textual supremacism.

When listening/watching stuff seems unavoidable, using an app that speeds up playback makes for a significantly better experience. I use one called MySpeed. Usually running at ~1.7x.

isn't that disorienting? does it pitch shift voices into falsettos? does it swallow meaningful pauses?

It keeps the pitch and voice quality normal. Depending on the speaker, anything from 1.3-2x speedup seems to lose little or nothing.
