This reminded me of when I started listening to a new podcast and also tried a new podcast app at the same time. The podcaster had this unusual editing style where he'd cut all the pauses out of his podcast and I really grew to love it. It was only when I tried a different podcast that did the same thing that I realised I had set the app to cut out all of the silences.

After that I've been unable to go back to normal speed podcasts - I just don't have the time or patience.

What app was that, out of curiosity?

Podcast Addict [0] has that feature but only runs on Android devices. I use that as well as speeding up podcasts to 2x speed which makes things better for me.

A variety of apps can do that. Pocket casts and Podcast addict come to mind

Overcast will do it on iOS, if you're not Android.
