I agree, for me they are too long and could be tightened up, there’s a lot of less-interesting content that could be edited out even. 1.5 hours for me is around the sweetspot of the best longform podcasts (Tim Ferris, Dwarkesh)
In saying that few EAs who I’ve complained to about this disagree and love the length, but I’m skeptical how much of that is coupled with it being the original format of “the” ORIGINAL EA podcast.
I wonder how many people who have encountered the podcast in the last couple of years find them too long compared to people who have been into it from the beginning.
