I suppose I'm in the minority here, but I avoid video or audio content entirely in these situations. I don't want to listen to somebody babble on about something, whether it's a news story, a documentary, an opinion piece, whatever. Just give me an article or even a blog post that I can read at my own pace, and easily scroll up to refer back to previous parts.

Ctrl+F is my best friend, and you can't do that in a video or podcast.
