Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Real World (known as Real World from 2014 to 2017) is a reality television series produced through MTV and Bunim/Murray Productions that currently airs on Facebook Watch after airing on MTV from 1992-2017 and was originally produced by Mary-Ellis Bunim and Jonathan Murray. First broadcast in 1992, the show, which was inspired by the 1973 PBS documentary series An American Family, is the longest-running program in MTV history, one of the longest-running reality series in history, and is credited with launching the modern reality TV genre. Seven to eight young adults are picked to temporarily live in a new city together in one residence while being filmed non-stop.
The series was hailed in its early years for depicting issues of contemporary young-adulthood relevant to its core audience, such as sex, prejudice, religion, abortion, illness, sexuality, AIDS, death, politics, and substance abuse, but later garnered a reputation as a showcase for immaturity and irresponsible behavior indicative of the declining morals of contemporary youth.Following Bunim's death from breast cancer in 2004, Bunim/Murray Productions continues to produce the program. The most recent season, the 32nd, set in Seattle, Washington, premiered on October 12, 2016.The series has generated two notable related series, both broadcast by MTV: Road Rules, a sister show, which lasted for 14 seasons (1995–2007), and the ongoing spin-off reality game show The Challenge, which has run for over 30 seasons since 1998.
On June 8, 2018, it was announced that MTV and Bunim-Murray Productions are working on a potential revival of Real World, with the hopes of selling the new version to a streaming platform. In 2018, it was announced that the revival had been sold for Facebook Watch for United States, Mexico, and Thailand seasons. The new US season is set to film in Atlanta, Georgia and is set to premiere in June 13, 2019.
