Isn’t an hour 60 minutes?

I don’t know whose brilliant idea it was to split the show for “listeners convenance”, but I’ve all but stopped paying attention to this podcast ever since it did. I suspect between publishing the print edition and having an hour of content ready by Friday was more than the staff could manage so they came up with the lame excuse that it was for “the listeners”. One would think that as sophisticated a lot as New Yorker readers would be aware of this thing they call a pause button and how it operates. Book smart and devoid of common sense maybe?
