A new way to "read" ETA content on the go

I wanted to share a tool I’ve recently been using that’s made it way easier to absorb more ETA content while on the go. Audioread, it basically turns any article, PDF, or webpage into a natural-sounding audio file you can listen to like a podcast on your streaming platform ( I use Spotify, but I believe it works with others as well).
I’ve been using it to go through some of the deeper-dive resources in the ETA space like the Yale SOM articles and Jim Sharpe’s blog. It's been great to help supplement the existing ETA podcasts, or go deeper on a specific topic while I am driving or outside running and looking to squeeze a little more learning into my day.
I also found out that Ryan, the CEO of Audioread, is an acquisition entrepreneur himself and he purchased the company last year. I don’t think he bought the company with the searchfund community in mind, but since it’s been helpful for me as a searcher, I figured it might be helpful for others here too.
