binge listening
Streaming audio gluttony
Binge listening is consuming multiple episodes of a podcast, audiobook, or music series in one extended session—the audio equivalent of binge watching.
The term emerged with the podcast boom: I spent the whole weekend binge listening to that true crime series.
It implies absorption so complete that stopping feels impossible.
