I listen to a lot of podcasts when I'm on the road. One of my favorites, The
Nerdist, is run by Chris Hardwick. His delivery sounds caffeine-fueled.

I listened to "Into the Plex" a while ago, an audiobook narrated
by a classic
voice actor. I put it on when I got in the car to drive to work, and when I got
to work, I heard, in the actor's deep delivery "End of Prologue....
Chapter 1".

I thought -- Christ, I could have listened to Chris Hardwick read half the book
in the same amount of time!
