00:00 You always say in your podcast that long attention spans are smart.
00:05 I was thinking that the two days we've been together are smart.
00:09 Your podcast is not exactly brief or actually counterintuitive in that sense.
00:15 That's why I say that just to remind people there's value in length.
00:20 Because now the trend is to shorten the content.
00:25 TikTok is a trend, which is a minute long.
00:30 Many experts say that the attention span is too short because there are so many distractions.
00:36 I think the long-form format we do on audio, on the internet, on podcasts,
00:43 but at the same time I've been doing it for a long time on TV, on documentary,
00:47 which is long-form non-fiction.
00:49 It goes against that trend.
00:51 I think we have to remind people of the value of that.
00:55 I say that the long attention span is smart.
00:57 I didn't invent that.
00:59 There's a science behind it.
01:01 No matter what, whether you're studying for an exam or trying to learn the piano
01:05 or trying to memorize something, if your attention span is too short,
01:09 you're too distracted with all the things happening in the world,
01:12 with all the things happening on your phone,
01:14 it makes you think.
01:16 I'm not saying that, the scientists are saying that.
01:19 It limits your ability to learn.
01:22 For us, because we're influenced by others,
01:25 I think we have to remind people, if you're able to listen intently to a conversation
01:30 for half an hour or up to an hour, it's already an accomplishment these days.
01:35 That's why I'm saying that.
01:36 It's not just a slogan.
01:38 If you repeat something often enough, people might remember it
01:42 and they might apply it in their lives.
01:44 They might attack you.
01:45 That's exactly what you said when you received your CMMA,
01:48 which I have to congratulate you for.
01:50 Congratulations to the Howie Severino podcast on your CMMA.
01:53 I like also what you said, that this legitimizes this format
01:58 as a way to educate and inform.
02:00 That means it's something that people are beginning to embrace as well.
02:03 Congratulations also on your recent win.
02:05 Thank you.
02:06 Of course, you're just as deserving.
02:08 I was just a little ahead, but you're just as deserving.
02:11 Yours was the first podcast of GMA Integrated News.
02:14 It really paved the way for the rest of us.
02:17 So inspiring.
