That's interesting. If you're talking about Hello Internet, I enjoy listening to them at 1x. I find it quite relaxing to listen to passively.

To date, this is the only podcast I can actually enjoy. I generally do other things while listening, and feel like I'm in the company of friends.

It undoubtedly has a relatively low density of information however I wouldn't speed it up, I would slow it down!
