 Fan, I'm with you.  I can't stand to have a talk tape on in the car.  Music is OK, but a talk tape distracts me and my mind goes off on some train of thought brought about by the subject and I lose my place in the story.  So I end up not paying attention to the road or what is going on in the narration all at the same time.  Within 30 seconds, no exageration, I just want to pop it out of the player and throw it out the window.  Frankly I just have an aversion to being read to.  I turn nasty if someone keeps reading aloud to me after I ask them to please stop.  The story has to go at my pace, not someone elses.
