"okay, let's concentrate. we've been at this timestamp 3 times already. this time i'm gonna listen real hard!"

20 seconds later; lost in thought.

5 mins later: "goddamit. it happened again. 😠"

it's so ridiculous.

Yup! At least I mostly only have to jump back about 30sec now... It does get frustrating when I jump back 30sec at the same point several times in a row!

Lol this happens to me with TV shows. I usually just say "fuck it," after rewinding three times and forgetting to pay attention to hear the one line I missed, and just let it play.

People use fidget spinners, but I figured out that holding a palm stone (whether purpose bought or just picked up off the ground) in my hand will let me sit and watch stuff vs. randomly forgetting I'm watching stuff.
