There is a very good documentary about Aaron's life: The Internet's Own Boy

Its license is Creative Commons, so it's on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M85UvH0TRPc

    Unfortunately I can't listen to podcasts. If I only listen to something without visual stimulation my mind start to think about unrelated things, and I just can't follow what they speak about, I loose track after a while.

    Before podcasts there were radio talk shows, I hated them similarly, and I tuned to another station where they were playing music.

    I can only listen to podcasts and I really dislike the trend of everything being videos. Especially when it's about how to do some technical thing and you have to watch someone using a terminal or doing a physical repair.... I literally CANNOT. I can't attend to the visuals. Just zone out. I mostly listen to TV/movies. When I was a kid you could get TV stations on the radio at night and I was totally happy to just listen to them.

    So you enjoy your half of the media and I'll enjoy my half. :)
