Quick poll for people who love playlists
I tried this in Cairo with a friend and we both noticed the same thing: the social part mattered more than the perfect plan.
This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. albums got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.

I picked Live show, mostly because it feels easiest to live with. It reminds me of a very specific conversation near the library.

I picked Podcast, mostly because it feels easiest to live with. I would test it for 3 days before deciding.

That sounds great until you add children/pets/deadlines.

Surprised more people aren't choosing Movie. It seems like the practical answer. It sounds small, but the playlist matters.

The context helps. Without it I would have assumed the opposite. I keep a note about concerts for exactly this reason.

Album got my vote. The other choices are good, but this one fits my week. I noticed the same thing in Mumbai.

Surprised more people aren't choosing Live show. It seems like the practical answer. I am curious whether albums still feels good next month.

Book got my vote. The other choices are good, but this one fits my week. I would love to see a follow-up after 4 weeks.
