I also listen to a ton of podcasts and think I know where they're coming from. If you're constantly listening to something, you're never really spending time analyzing or working through your own thoughts. A re-occurring topic on HN seems to be that a certain amount of boredom is good for you, but constant podcasts take away that opportunity.
