the idea that young people have ever-shortening 'attention spans' is a constant refrain.
yet, i see young people watching intricately plotted 40-hour TV shows, and listening to commercial-free podcasts which sustain 1 topic for 5 hours.
so how does this idea persist?

podcasts are passive, you can tune your attention in and out
same with most tv shows. ppl rewatch complex shows multiple times
