Description

There’s no doubt that we’re living in a world of micro-content overload. With the rise of short-form platforms like TikTok and Instagram, creators and brands are in a continuous fight for a piece of our attention spans (which are now shorter than a goldfish’s, apparently, thanks to smartphones). 

You don’t need to look far to see marketers proclaiming the death of long-form content. I’m paraphrasing here, but it’s certainly the sentiment we’re being fed: Our lives are way too busy, there’s too much to consume, and no one has the time or patience to go deep into the detail anymore.

But is this really the case? And is the rise of short-form content really a threat to podcasting?
