The Embrace of Audio Storytelling
Audio storytelling remains a favored medium among audiences despite efforts by platforms like Spotify to pivot towards video content. There is a fundamental belief that audio allows for deeper connections, enabling people to engage with narratives while multitasking or during quiet moments in their lives. This highlights an intrinsic human preference for immersive stories that audio provides, which a shift to video may not replicate.
