I like to talk (quite a bit, as you know if you watch me on YouTube), but I also like to listen, especially to things that I only know a little bit about but am mildly interested in. I can, and occasionally do, start talking about a subject I know a lot about, then - as I mention something that needs to be understood to understand the original concept - drill down in the information.
I think I could learn a lot by listening to such streams of information. One problem: people who are willing to talk so much and know things that are interesting to me or useful in the real world are very hard to find. That's very unfortunate, because I consider such people the most interesting in the world.
What I'd like is to find such a person, sit down, and listen to him/her talk for as long as both of us can stand it. I would learn so much, even if I didn't catch all the details; it could open entirely new fields of study for me to consider.
