Which uses less of the phone's battery power on long trips?
Playing long podcasts with the Android speaker as the output?
Playing long podcasts with a Bluetooth speaker as the output instead?
Any idea?
Speaker wattage is about 3W.
Bluetooth uses about 2.5mW.
So the speaker uses more than 3000x the power.
Do you have a source?

They say: "The results show that playing back audio over Bluetooth
consumes essentially the same amount of power as playing back
audio over speakers or headphones with Bluetooth turned
off".
Why not obviate the battery problem by putting the podcasts on a USB stick plugged into the AUX socket?
You're assuming they're (1) in a vehicle and (2) where that is possible.
(1) Indeed. I posit that "long trip" implies a car rather than a set of portable bluetooth speakers. (2) I would be willing to bet that any car with a bluetooth connection to a phone will also have an AUX connection. Maybe also a CD player.
