This link directs me to several bullet points and a truncated podcast. It seems like the real podcast is behind a paywall.

I’m not sure what there’s to discuss about the content itself as I can’t listen to it. Am I doing something wrong?

No, and you're not the only one. I've come to despise podcasts, because they are almost always very badly organized, if at all. I feel that we need a response to them, along the lines of "this could have been an email", except "this could have been a blog post."

Yes, your information might be insightul, but if I have to listen to 90 minutes of a couple of guys shooting the shit about it, it's next to useless in terms of actionable or meaningful content to me.

I really need a "TL;DR" for podcasts. Something along the line of the five minute precis from Gibson's "Count Zero".
