Ron listening is hindered by an Attention-deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This is a brain disorder that is characterized by an ongoing pattern of 3 factors:

Inattention: When a person wanders off a task or activity Hyperactivity: When a person overdoes something continuously, which leads him to inappropriate situations. Impulsivity: When a person takes abrupt actions that may have a high potential to cause harm.

In this case, Ron is being affected by the "Inattention" factor of ADHD, causing him to lack attention and lose track of what Joe is saying.
