Sorry if this isn't a big enough discussion to warrant it's own 'lil thread (feel free to delete, I won't be offended). But I was just curious, under what circumstance do y'all listen to the show? Do you listen to it on your laptop, your ipod, or cell phone? Are you doing laundry? Eating lunch? Lifting weights? Punching babies? Making out with your sister?? Do tell! We are ever so intrigued.

Me, I always listen when I'm doing work around the house like collecting the trash, sweeping, laundry, etc. I also often listen when I'm walking to and from work, which is a good hour long walk so I get a good bit of listening time there. It can cause problems though when I'm laughing hysterically at the podcast's shenanigans and people walking in my general vicinity think I'm either laughing at them or I have recently escaped from a mental asylum.

It's quite worth it though, I assure you.

Now what's your story, love?

Yes, occasionally it provides the soundtrack to my bi-monthly baby punching session. But more often I just pour myself some Dornish red, take off my pants, and listen on my laptop while doing some casual browsing.

The title is a bit misleading, but the poll covers the question you are asking. :D

I listen with my headphones on, while at work for the most part. If I'm at my desk, then I'll just stream it through the website. If I'm partaking in activities away from my desk or when I'm at the gym, I'll listen to it with my iPod.

It's funny because a number of the audiobooks I listen to are deep and/or require a deep intellectual interest. Such as The Road to Serfdom by F.A. Hayek, Democracy in America by Alexis de Tocqueville, Meditations by Marcus Aurelius, etc. So my co-workers view me as a paragon of sophistication... if only they knew.

I listen while doing housework in the car or walking the dog. Actually the podcast is the sole reason I volunteer to walk the dog when I do.

Also in bed. Not for a kinky reason, although the podcasters are all sexy (what's up Amin ;) ) It relaxes me after a long day.

I'm shocked at how many of you listen at work. Doesn't it interfere with, you know... work?

Adderal is a magnificent substance. And I typically don't need to speak to people too often. If I'm doing something complex I'll pause it. So, not really.
