I must be an anomoly; I disagree with the quoted part above. I listen all the way to the end (I don't watch the videos). Hell, I get annoyed when I have to forward through the silent final 40 seconds that are not edited out (not really Ray). I may be one of the hundreds that listened, 2x, to the technology of the gyms. Was fascinated by the discussion of the lighting, and texted Ray how much I enjoyed it. But as Pete T has said, I am a psychopath.
Long form ANYTHING will be well received if it is engaging, interesting, and authentically given/delivered. Long movies, podcasts, books... Doesn't matter.
