2) Audiobooks/podcasts (Particular nonfiction) When I started making my 40-50 minute commute, I always listened to music and hated those drives. I switched it up to audiobooks and podcasts, usually nonfiction, for these commutes and it is now some of the more relaxing and enjoyable parts of the day for me. If I go for runs/row I usally listen to these instead of music now just because it helps pass time. I rarely listen to music now

I haven't tried audio books, but I did switch away from music...

I drive quite a bit for work and was getting really tired of it. I quit listening to music and now listen almost exclusively to talk radio of one form or another (nothing political). I like public radio and espn radio primarily. This has made a world of difference in my driving...I actually look forward to hearing certain shows now instead of just dreading the drive.
