What's the longest YouTube video you've ever abandoned halfway through?

by•

Genuinely curious where everyone's breaking point is.

For me it's anywhere past the 45-minute mark on a podcast. I'll start with good intentions, hit minute 30, realize the actual insight is going to come somewhere in the last 20 minutes, and close the tab. Then I feel guilty about it for a week.

The ones I give up on most:

  • Long-form founder interviews (Lex, Tim Ferriss, My First Million)

  • 90-minute conference talks that are really one good 10-minute idea

  • Anything a friend sends me with "you HAVE to watch this, it's only an hour"

What's yours? And is there a specific type of video you wish had a "give me the 3 minutes that matter" button?

(Building toward that button. Launching Monday. But mostly just want to know where the universal pain point is.)
