Although her point “Can you tell me the thesis and supporting arguements of videos you watched from two calendar years ago?” doesn’t really land for me - I can barely remember my own life from two years ago.

I have my master's in a field I'm very passionate about, and I can barely remember my thesis when people ask me about it, even though I spent two years developing it :P

I do like the author's points very much, and I especially appreciate her unique perspective, because a lot of times I read things like this from US or UK authors, as opposed to someone who's had the experiences she has. But I also agree that maybe it's a bit unfair to consumers of audiobooks and alternative forms of reading, and it probably misses its target audience.

I showed my husband as soon as I finished reading because I felt like he could relate to a lot of what she said since he has ADHD, and as soon as he saw the length of the article, he said, "You're kidding,right?"

Also, I listen to audiobooks a lot while I'm out walking or longboarding, and I really don't notice a difference between that and conventional reading. I feel like I absorb the information just as well, and sometimes even more because I'm keeping my hands and feet busy and am therefore less distracted than when I try to sit still and read.
