challenge goals:
Going to make some lowkey goals for this one. Last time my goals were 20hrs/month for a total of 40 hours, so I’ll set it at 10hrs/month for 20 hours total. Of course I might end up going really hard anyways so we’ll see. I will focus on podcasts and audiobooks.

30 hours listened (stretch goal!)
soggy’s challenge review
This challenge season, listening was not a huge focus for me. I decided to just listen to however much I felt like, without pushing myself to a huge hours goal.
Total time: 24 hours 05min from podcasts and audiobooks.
I didn’t count youtube, which maybe adds 2-3 hours of casual listening.
I listened to…
18 episodes of YUYUの日本語 (approx. 9 hours)
3 episodes of 4989 American Life (approx 1 hr 30)
All of コーヒーが冷めないうちに (approx 8 hours)
All of アリス＆ペンギン (approx. 3 hours 20)
And about 2/3rds of 時間割男子 (approx 3 hours 20)
The biggest win of this challenge was discovering that I can use audiobooks for listening now! I forged my way through all of コーヒーが冷めない, which was difficult (lots of missed details, lots of pausing for lookups) but still rewarding (noticed big improvements in parsing whole spoken sentences). I also can use children’s audiobooks at the L20-24 level for much more comfortable listening (some sentences are 100% comprehension, a good amount are N+1 comprehension with only one or two unknown words, pausing for lookups is less frequent).
