Do You Think Podcasts Can Be Used to Communicate Ideas?

I'm somewhat guilty of this. I listen to podcasts and I don't really read many books on the matters that we're discussing for example.

When reading their book, I'll just listen to podcast conversations of them talking about the book. It's almost like they needed to go through the process of writing a book just so they can think through, convert the language in their minds into something more concrete. The actual communication of ideas with the public happens not with the book, but after the book with that person going on a book tour, communicating the ideas.
