I like it when the interviewer is skilled. They get me thinking in ways I wouldn't think by myself. If you think of it as information being extracted from you from thought processes at various stages of maturity, you will have this reaction.

I had very good podcast experiences with shane parrish, longform, econtalk among others. I'm completely fine improv-shitposting orally on topics where my thinking is still taking shape. That's the point! People are boring where they've "finished" thinking.

I don't *listen* to podcasts because it's not a good input medium for me, but I get that a lot of people find it a good way to process stuff, especially in the background with partial attention. So the low density and redundancy/inefficiency actually helps them.
