Radio broadcast engineers make a distinction between signal and noise and define a signal to noise ratio. I talk about the separation of wheat and chaff. Can you see the parallels here? Wheat and chaff are metaphors you can and do apply to what people say. Do you find that some people are prone to speak insightful, profound truth consistently and other people speak mostly chaff? Yet if you make the effort you can find something worthwhile in the statements of most people. So this puts the burden back on you. Can you distinguish between signal and noise? Can you separate wheat and chaff in the moment as you listen to it?
