Videos are great too because you can listen to them in the background while working , driving, riding the bus, jogging or working out in the gym, etc.
It's not the kind of valuable critical piece of information that deserves 100% of my attention and brain processing power in order to warrant for me to dedicate time of my day just to read it and only it, that's for books with a story arc.
When I'm working, I'm focused on the task. When I'm driving, I'm focused on the road. In the gym, I'm focused on doing exercises properly. I don't fancy listening to talks mindlessly. What's the point? If I need background that doesn't need my attention, I have a collection of various noises and electronic music.

What's the point of reading something while drinking my coffee quietly?
When I'm drinking my coffee I focus on enjoying the palate, when I'm reading I am laser-focused on processing and retaining information.
Multitasking prevents me from attaining the full benefits of these exquisite activities. If need a mindless task while I'm sipping my morning brew I can always count primes backwards or stare at the other hipster in the coffee shop.
Sounds fantastic! I'm glad you've found your way of achieving an inner peace.
