YouTube is huge, but watching video requires more attention than listening to audio. Since podcasts remain popular, might there be room for audio-only courses?

This might serve as a reminder that as we saw in another listener question recently, you can start your brainstorming process by thinking of a topic or a medium. Each approach has pros and cons, so you have to figure out what’s best for you.
"These days, online video is more popular than ever. YouTube gets billions of views every day, and TikTok is huge. But as a podcast listener, I prefer audio. It's more convenient to me and I can take it wherever I go. After all, you can't watch videos in the car unless someone else is driving. It seems, however, that most online courses and information products prioritize video over audio. Could it actually be a benefit to be audio-first?"
