I'm Adam Manus, and I'm Peter Martin, and you're listening to the You'll Hear at Podcast.

Today we're going to tell you how to listen to jazz.

All right.

Now this seems like we should have talked about this way, way before this episode.

Well, it's possible we did.

We're well over 100 episodes now.

And we have this on our list like we haven't done it. But this is so important that even if we talked about it before, we're going to talk about it again. We do talk about listen pretty much

every single day. Number one. Listen. So this can be a whole little mini episode about how, well,

all of them are many episodes thankfully okay so

but this really you know in this day and age you do have to talk about how you listen to anything

i think yeah um i think we were both fortunate you kind of caught the tail end maybe of a little bit

of distraction free forced, forced listening.

And I was definitely coming up in that era.

But now young people are coming up at a time.

And we're all living in a world where there's many more available distractions in terms of media at one time.

So things that, like if you listen to the radio or you listen to an album or even if you watch a

videotape or these things you couldn't really do more than one thing and there was no like play next

or a way to jump to something else too quickly yeah i mean i guess you could pick up an LP and

jump to another track but but it's not like today no i mean i've heard uh recently you know

television networks talk about how they're having to fight the second screen.

Everybody's watching everything on their, on TV with a second screen in their lap or on their hand.

Yeah.
